So I coded this up ... and it looks much better than I thought
it might. A bit larger than the previous version that modified
drivers/acpi/apei/bert.c. But on the plus side easy to extend if
there are other ACPI tables that point at interesting data.
It doesn't handle dynamic tables. That would add a lot of complexity
and BERT isn't dynamic. Could be a later patch if someone has a
need for it.
All names negotiable.

Subject: [PATCH] ACPI / sysfs: Extend ACPI sysfs to provide access to boot
error region
The ACPI sysfs interface provides a way to read each ACPI table from
userspace via entries in /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/
The BERT table simply provides the size and address of the error
record in BIOS reserved memory and users may want access to this
record.
In an earlier age we might have used /dev/mem to retrieve this error
record, but many systems disable /dev/mem for security reasons.
Extend this driver to provide read-only access to the data via a
file in a new directory /sys/firmware/acpi/tables-data/

v3: (suggested by Punit Agrawal) extend the /sys/firmware/acpi
code to provide this functionality.
