Make those functions whose callers only care about success or failure return
a boolean value for better readability. Also, update the call sites
accordingly as the polarities of all the return values have been flipped.
No functional changes.

Currently, exporting new additional machine check error information
involves adding new fields for the same at the end of the struct mce.
This additional information can then be consumed through mcelog or
tracepoint.
However, as new MSRs are being added (and will be added in the future)
by CPU vendors on their newer CPUs with additional machine check error
information to be exported, the size of struct mce will balloon on some
CPUs, unnecessarily, since those fields are vendor-specific. Moreover,
different CPU vendors may export the additional information in varying
sizes.
The problem particularly intensifies since struct mce is exposed to
userspace as part of UAPI. It's bloating through vendor-specific data
should be avoided to limit the information being sent out to userspace.
Add a new structure mce_hw_err to wrap the existing struct mce. The same
will prevent its ballooning since vendor-specifc data, if any, can now be
exported through a union within the wrapper structure and through
__dynamic_array in mce_record tracepoint.
Furthermore, new internal kernel fields can be added to the wrapper
struct without impacting the user space API.

Systems with a large number of CPUs may generate a large number of
machine check records when things go seriously wrong. But Linux has
a fixed-size buffer that can only capture a few dozen errors.
Allocate space based on the number of CPUs (with a minimum value based
on the historical fixed buffer that could store 80 records).

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.

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:

|-- apei.c
|-- core.c
