x86: don't call mce_create_device on CPU_UP_PREPARE

Fix regression introduced with d435d862


("cpu hotplug: mce: fix cpu hotplug error handling").

A CPU which was not brought up during boot (using maxcpus and
additional_cpus parameters) couldn't be onlined anymore.  For such a CPU it
seemed that MCE was not supported during CPU_UP_PREPARE-time which caused
mce_cpu_callback to return NOTIFY_BAD to notifier_call_chain.  To fix this
we:

 - call mce_create_device for CPU_ONLINE event (instead of CPU_UP_PREPARE),
 - avoid mce_remove_device() for the CPU that is not correctly initialized
   by mce_create_device() failure,
 - make mce_cpu_callback always return NOTIFY_OK for CPU_ONLINE event.
   Because CPU_ONLINE callback return value is always ignored.
