s390/etr,stp: fix possible deadlock on machine check
The first level machine check handler for etr and stp machine checks may
call queue_work() while in nmi context. This may deadlock e.g. if the
machine check happened when the interrupted context did hold a lock, that
also will be acquired by queue_work().
Therefore split etr and stp machine check handling into first and second
level handling. The second level handling will then issue the queue_work()
call in process context which avoids the potential deadlock.
