All the MCE attributes currently exported via sysfs appear under
/sys/devices/system/machinecheck/machinecheck<n>/. Pretty much all of
these are global in nature and not specific to a processor. So, make these
available under /sys/devices/system/machinecheck/ where they rightly belong.
Update documentation to also point to the new location so that user-space
tools can pick up on the new location. We would eventually want to remove
these from the per-cpu location.
