x86/mce/therm_throt: Do not access uninitialized therm_work
It is relatively easy to trigger the following boot splat on an Ice Lake
client platform. The call stack is like:
kernel BUG at kernel/timer/timer.c:1152!
Call Trace:
__queue_delayed_work
queue_delayed_work_on
therm_throt_process
intel_thermal_interrupt
...
The reason is that a CPU's thermal interrupt is enabled prior to
executing its hotplug onlining callback which will initialize the
throttling workqueues.
Such a race can lead to therm_throt_process() accessing an uninitialized
therm_work, leading to the above BUG at a very early bootup stage.
Therefore, unmask the thermal interrupt vector only after having setup
the workqueues completely.
