Hi all,

I've also encountered the similar bug:
  [Firmware Bug]: APEI: Invalid bit width + offset in GAR [0x1121a5000/64/0/3/0]
during einj test. 

Besides Ying's fix patch, I think its a regression caused by incorrect bit width + offset check condition introduced by commit v3.3-5-g15afae6. I've written a fix patch for it and will send it in a separate mail soon.

Thanks,
-Hui
