AMD family 17h Models 10h-2Fh may report a high number of L1 BTB MCA
errors under certain conditions. The errors are benign and can safely be
ignored. However, the high error rate may cause the MCA threshold
counter to overflow causing a high rate of thresholding interrupts.
In addition, users may see the errors reported through the AMD MCE
decoder module, even with the interrupt disabled, due to MCA polling.
Clear the "Counter Present" bit in the Instruction Fetch bank's
MCA_MISC0 register. This will prevent enabling MCA thresholding on this
bank which will prevent the high interrupt rate due to this error.
Define an AMD-specific function to filter these errors from the MCE
event pool so that they don't get reported during early boot.
Rename filter function in EDAC/mce_amd to avoid a naming conflict, while
at it.

Some systems may report spurious MCA errors. In general, spurious MCA
errors may be disabled by clearing a particular bit in MCA_CTL. However,
clearing a bit in MCA_CTL may not be recommended for some errors, so the
only option is to ignore them.
An MCA error is printed and handled after it has been added to the MCE
event pool. So an MCA error can be ignored by not adding it to that pool
in the first place.
Add such a filtering function.

Move the pr_fmt prefix to internal.h and include it everywhere. This
way, all pr_* printed strings will be prepended with "mce: ".

Rename the containing folder to "mce" which is the most widespread name.
Drop the "mce[-_]" filename prefix of some compilation units (while
others don't have it).
This unifies the file naming in the MCE subsystem:
mce/
|-- amd.c
|-- apei.c
|-- core.c
|-- dev-mcelog.c
|-- genpool.c
|-- inject.c
|-- intel.c
|-- internal.h
|-- Makefile
|-- p5.c
|-- severity.c
|-- therm_throt.c
|-- threshold.c
`-- winchip.c
