[patch 8/9] mce: fix cpu hotplug error handling

[Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com>]

- Clear kobject in percpu device_mce before calling sysdev_register() with

  Because mce_create_device() may fail and it leaves kobject filled with
  junk. It will be the problem when mce_create_device() will be called
  next time.

- Fix error handling in mce_create_device()

  Error handling should not do sysdev_remove_file() with not yet added
  attributes.

- Don't register hotcpu notifier when mce_create_device() returns error

- Do mce_create_device() in CPU_UP_PREPARE instead of CPU_ONLINE
