- Populate the per CPU MCA bank descriptor pointer only after it has been
completely set up to prevent a use-after-free in case that one of the
subsequent initialization step fails
- Implement a proper release function for the sysfs entries of MCA
threshold controls instead of freeing the memory right in the CPU
teardown code, which leads to another use-after-free when the
associated sysfs file is opened and accessed.

Pull RAS fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Two fixes for the AMD MCE driver:
- Populate the per CPU MCA bank descriptor pointer only after it has
been completely set up to prevent a use-after-free in case that one
of the subsequent initialization step fails
- Implement a proper release function for the sysfs entries of MCA
threshold controls instead of freeing the memory right in the CPU
teardown code, which leads to another use-after-free when the
associated sysfs file is opened and accessed"
