[PATCH] [13/20] x86: Use a deferrable timer for the correctable machine check poller

They are not time critical and delaying them a little for the next regular wakeup is no problem. Also when a CPU is idle then it is unlikely to generate errors anyways, so it is ok to check only when the CPU is actually doing something. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ---
