drivers/edac: fix reset edac_mc pollmsec

This fixes a deadlock that could occur on a 'setup' and 'teardown' sequence of
the workq for a edac_mc control structure instance.  A similiar fix was
previously implemented for the edac_device code.

In addition, the edac_mc device code there was missing code to allow the workq
period valu to be altered via sysfs control.

This patch adds that fix on the code, and allows for the changing of the
period value as well.
