Hi, The small series re-factors the GHES driver initialisation to move memory allocation and checks from driver init to device probe. The net effect is to improve the situation for systems that do not support APEI. The patches are organised as - * Unify estatus pool creation and expansion into ghes_estatus_pool_init() * Move memory initialisation and firmware first support checks from driver init to device probe * Do not set hest_disable if HEST not found The set of patches initially started out as a single patch[0]. The current series is the re-worked approach based on ensuing discussion. They patches are based on v4.13-rc3 and have been tested on a system that does not support APEI. Further testing on systems that support APEI to ensure that the changes do not break expected behaviour will be greatly appreciated.
