Subject: [PATCH 1/4] [Patch-next] ACPI, APEI, ERST Fix the wrong checking
 of Serialization Header's length

header_length in struct acpi_table_erst is not the length of struct
acpi_table_erst, but the length of Serialization Header.

In erst_check_table(), header_length is used for checking the length
of struct acpi_table_erst. So I think it is wrong.

This patch fixed it and I confirmed it on x86_64 next-tree.
