3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dewet Thibaut <thibaut.dewet@nokia.com>
commit fbdb328c6bae0a7c78d75734a738b66b86dffc96 upstream.
commit b3b7c4795c ("x86/MCE: Serialize sysfs changes") introduced a min interval limitation when setting the check interval for polled MCEs. However, the logic is that 0 disables polling for corrected MCEs, see Documentation/x86/x86_64/machinecheck. The limitation prevents disabling.
Remove this limitation and allow the value 0 to disable polling again.
