Parts 1 & 2 of your series can be applied now (as nice cleanups).

But part 3 would just be confusing to users without the matching patch
to add CXL injection support.

I.e. a user might

# cat /sys/kernel/debug/apei/einj/available_error_type

and see:

0x00001000	CXL.cache Protocol Correctable

But:

# echo 0x1000 > /sys/kernel/debug/apei/einj/error_type

wouldn't do anything useful (may do weird stuff since the driver
doesn't appear to validate the "type" ... would be great if you fixed
that while you are digging around in this code :-).

So I'm happy to offer up a "Reviewed-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx>"
for all three parts. I just think that part 3 should not be applied until the
rest of the code to go with it is ready.

-Tony
