x86, mce: remove TSC print heuristic 

Previously mce_panic used a simple heuristic to avoid printing
old so far unreported machine check events on a mce panic. This worked
by comparing the TSC value at the start of the machine check handler
with the event time stamp and only printing newer ones.

This has a couple of issues, in particular on systems where the TSC
is not fully synchronized between CPUs it could lose events or print
old ones.

It is also problematic with full system synchronization as it is
added by the next patch.

Remove the TSC heuristic and instead replace it with a simple heuristic
to print corrected errors first and after that uncorrected errors
and finally the worst machine check as determined by the machine
check handler.

This simplifies the code because there is no need to pass the
original TSC value around.
