This mutex is being used throughout ghes.c for editing the lists, so I
think this is the proper (or at least consistent) implementation. This
mutex was defined specifically for editing the lists according to the
comment above the mutex definition:
"All error sources notified with SCI shares one notifier function, so
they need to be linked and checked one by one. This is applied to NMI
too. RCU is used for these lists, so ghes_list_mutex is only used for
list changing, not for traversing."
The use of this mutex is identical to the way that SCI and NMI use it
when adding or deleting from the lists. Should I add to this comment
that this applies to SEA as well?
