x86/mce: Fix monarch timeout setting through the mce= cmdline option

Xie XiuQi · Ingo Molnar · commit 5c31b2800d8d · 2015-05-27T14:39:14.000+02:00
Using "mce=1,10000000" on the kernel cmdline to change the monarch timeout does not work. The cause is that get_option() does parse a subsequent comma in the option string and signals that with a return value. So we don't need to check for a second comma ourselves.
