This patch doesn't apply to any upstream tree. Is this based on Tyler's larger
UEFI/ACPI update series? If so, please mention this in your cover letter, (Nit:
please include a cover letter when sending two or more patches!).
What happens if the SError Interrupt arrives while KVM was doing its work? We
set the HCR_EL2.AMO bit when running a guest, so KVM may receive these instead
of the host kernel.

Where nmi_exit()?
This nmi enter/exit was to prevent APEI being interrupted by APEI and trying to
take the same set of locks. APEI masks IRQs to prevent this happening normally,
but Synchronous External Abort couldn't be masked.
We don't mask Asynchronous Exceptions in APEI so the same thing can happen here.
Adding nmi_{enter,exit}() round the ghes call in the arch bad_mode() will
prevent this lockup.
