Cool :)
Here is the updated patch for part 3 incorporating Boris's comments.

If the firmware indicates in GHES error data entry that the error threshold
has exceeded for a corrected error event, then we try to soft-offline the
page. This could be called in interrupt context, so we queue this up similar
to how we handle memory failure scenarios.
