Subject: [PATCH 3/3] ACPI/APEI/EINJ: Allow memory error injection to NVDIMM

In the case of memory error injection, einj_error_inject() checks
if a target address is regular RAM.  Change this check to allow
injecting a memory error to both RAM and NVDIMM so that memory
errors can be tested on NVDIMM as well.
