x86/RAS/AMD: Reduce the number of IPIs when prepping error injection
We currently use wrmsr_on_cpu() 4 times when prepping for an error injection. This will generate 4 IPIs for each MSR write. We can reduce the number of IPIs to 1 by grouping the MSR writes and executing them serially on the appropriate CPU.
