If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit c285ecce5f21fd8f40a3aee206cbddc41c25545c Author: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jun 24 16:05:26 2022 -0700 ACPI: APEI: Fix _EINJ vs EFI_MEMORY_SP [ Upstream commit b13a3e5fd40b7d1b394c5ecbb5eb301a4c38e7b2 ] When a platform marks a memory range as "special purpose" it is not onlined as System RAM by default. However, it is still suitable for error injection. Add IORES_DESC_SOFT_RESERVED to einj_error_inject() as a permissible memory type in the sanity checking of the arguments to _EINJ.
