hi sir, i think this can be improved again, we can avoid calling
this_cpu_read(mce_num_banks) twice if we pass the numbanks as an
argument, plz review the changes below

OK, nice improvement. I will fold this in...


It looks like this now. Yazen, Alviro, please review the
following patch. If you think it looks good, I will submit
it for the v5.

Subject: [PATCH v5 2/2] x86/MCE/AMD: Fix memory leak when `threshold_create_bank()` fails

In mce_threshold_create_device(), if threshold_create_bank() fails, the
@bp will be leaked, because mce_threshold_remove_device() will not free
the @bp. It only frees the @bp when we've already written the @bp to
the @threshold_banks per-CPU variable, but at the point, we haven't.

Fix this by extracting the cleanup part into a new static function
_mce_threshold_remove_device(), then use it from create/remove device
function. Also, eliminate the "goto out_err". Just early return inside
the loop if we fail.
