Subject: ACPI, APEI support

This patchset adds the APEI (ACPI Platform Error Interface) support to
Linux kernel.

01-06 include the basic APEI HEST parsing and EINJ support. They have
been posted to mailing list before and get some reviews and
ACKs. Changes since the last post are as follow.

- Make APEI infrastructure and HEST parsing configurable built-in
  instead of modules to solve some dependency issues.

- Some minor fixes, such as printk

07-10 are newly added to support GHES (Generic Hardware Error Source)
corrected memory error. On some machines, Machine Check can not report
physical address for some corrected memory errors, but GHES can do
that. So this simplified GHES is implemented and posted firstly.

11-12 are newly added to support using ERST for persistent storage of
MCE. This can improve fatal MCE report.
