x86/mce: Fix siginfo_t->si_addr value for non-recoverable memory faults
In commit dad1743e5993f1 ("x86/mce: Only restart instruction after machine
check recovery if it is safe") we fixed mce_notify_process() to force a
signal to the current process if it was not restartable (RIPV bit not
set in MCG_STATUS). But doing it here means that the process doesn't
get told the virtual address of the fault via siginfo_t->si_addr. This
would prevent application level recovery from the fault.
Make a new MF_MUST_KILL flag bit for memory_failure() et al. to use so
that we will provide the right information with the signal.
