[PATCH] ACPI: APEI: set memory failure flags as MF_ACTION_REQUIRED on action required events

[Shuai Xue <xueshuai@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are two major types of uncorrected error (UC) :

- Action Required: The error is detected and the processor already consumes the
  memory. OS requires to take action (for example, offline failure page/kill
  failure thread) to recover this uncorrectable error.

- Action Optional: The error is detected out of processor execution context.
  Some data in the memory are corrupted. But the data have not been consumed.
  OS is optional to take action to recover this uncorrectable error.

For X86 platforms, we can easily distinguish between these two types
based on the MCA Bank. While for arm64 platform, the memory failure
flags for all UCs which severity are GHES_SEV_RECOVERABLE are set as 0,
a.k.a, Action Optional now.

If UC is detected by a background scrubber, it is obviously an Action
Optional error.  For other errors, we should conservatively regard them
as Action Required.

cper_sec_mem_err::error_type identifies the type of error that occurred
if CPER_MEM_VALID_ERROR_TYPE is set. So, set memory failure flags as 0
for Scrub Uncorrected Error (type 14). Otherwise, set memory failure
flags as MF_ACTION_REQUIRED.
