HWPOISON: Clean up PR_MCE_KILL interface
While writing the manpage I noticed some shortcomings in the current interface. - Define symbolic names for all the different values - Boundary check the kill mode values - For symmetry add a get interface too. This allows library code to get/set the current state. - For consistency define a PR_MCE_KILL_DEFAULT value Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
