There has been a lurking "TBD" in the machine check poll routine ever
since it was first split out from the machine check handler. The potential
issue is that the poll routine may have just begun a read from the STATUS
register in a machine check bank when the hardware logs an error in that
bank and signals a machine check. That race used to be pretty small back
when machine checks were broadcast, but the addition of local machine check
means that the poll code could continue running and clear the error from the
bank before the local machine check handler on another CPU gets around to
reading it.

Fix the code to be sure to only process errors that need to be processed
in the poll code, leaving other logged errors alone for the machine check
handler to find and process.

Fixes: b79109c3bbcf ("x86, mce: separate correct machine check poller and fatal exception handler")
Fixes: ed7290d0ee8f ("x86, mce: implement new status bits")
