Subject: [PATCH 09/19] ACPI, APEI, Add WHEA _OSC support

From: Huang Ying <ying.huang@...el.com>

APEI firmware first mode must be turned on explicitly on some
machines, otherwise there may be no GHES hardware error record for
hardware error notification.  APEI bit in generic _OSC call can be
used to do that, but on some machine, a special WHEA _OSC call must be
used.  This patch adds the support to that WHEA _OSC call.
