    Power limit notification feature is published in Intel 64 and IA-32
    Architectures SDMV Vol 3A 14.5.6 Power Limit Notification.
    
    It is implemented first on Intel Sandy Bridge platform.
    
    The patch handles notification interrupt. Interrupt handler dumps power limit
    information in log_buf, logs the event in mce log, and increases the event
    counters (core_power_limit and package_power_limit). Upper level applications
    could use the data to detect system health or diagnose functionality/performance
    issues.
    
    In the future, the event could be handled in a more fancy way.
