x86/ras: Flip the TSC-adding logic
Add the TSC value to the MCE record only when the MCE being logged is precise, i.e., it is logged as an exception or an MCE-related interrupt. So it doesn't look particularly easy to do without touching/changing a bunch of places. That's why I'm trying tricks first. For example, the mce-apei.c case I'm addressing by setting ->tsc only for errors of panic severity. The idea there is, that, panic errors will have raised an #MC and not polled. And then instead of propagating a flag to mce_setup(), it seems easier/less code to set ->tsc depending on the call sites, i.e., are we polling or are we preparing an MCE record in an exception handler/thresholding interrupt.
