c3e6088e10 ACPI, APEI, EINJ Param support is disabled by default
EINJ parameter support is only usable for some specific BIOS.
Originally, it is expected to have no harm for BIOS does not support
it.  But now, we found it will cause issue (memory overwriting) for
some BIOS.  So param support is disabled by default and only enabled
when newly added module parameter named "param_extension" is
explicitly specified.

c413d76820 ACPI, APEI, Add PCIe AER error information printing support
The AER error information printing support is implemented in
drivers/pci/pcie/aer/aer_print.c.  So some string constants, functions
and macros definitions can be re-used without being exported.

The original PCIe AER error information printing function is not
re-used directly because the overall format is quite different.  And
changing the original printing format may make some original users'
scripts broken.

f59c55d04b ACPI, APEI, Add APEI generic error status printing support
In APEI, Hardware error information reported by firmware to Linux
kernel is in the data structure of APEI generic error status (struct
acpi_hes_generic_status).  While now printk is used by Linux kernel to
report hardware error information to user space.

So, this patch adds printing support for the data structure, so that
the corresponding hardware error information can be reported to user
space via printk.

PCIe AER information printing is not implemented yet.  Will refactor the
original PCIe AER information printing code to avoid code duplicating.

The output format is as follow:

<error record> :=
APEI generic hardware error status
severity: <integer>, <severity string>
section: <integer>, severity: <integer>, <severity string>

Where, [] designate corresponding content is optional

All <field string> description with * has the following format:

field: <integer>, <field string>

Where value of <integer> should be the position of "string" in <field
string> description. Otherwise, <field string> will be "unknown".

All <field strings> description with # has the following format:

field: <integer>
<field strings>

Where each string in <fields strings> corresponding to one set bit of
<integer>. The bit position is the position of "string" in <field
strings> description.

specification version 2.3 or later, section Appendix N: Common
Platform Error Record.

6e320ec1d9 ACPI, APEI, EINJ injection parameters support
Some hardware error injection needs parameters, for example, it is
useful to specify memory address and memory address mask for memory
errors.

Some BIOSes allow parameters to be specified via an unpublished
extension. This patch adds support to it. The parameters will be
ignored on machines without necessary BIOS support.
