These commits were created to make APEI tables testable. All should be pushed to some test brunch so anybody could test it on his own, reused etc.

So I think these patches are okay as they are. Are you working on this for UEFI, also? I'd like to see a separate patch enabling this to work for the UEFI case also as soon as we can.
1. Since we can trigger APEI errors using simulated SCI we do not need second patch and only fist and third patch are on special branch right now.
2. This patch set should work for UEFI but I need to check how to load APEI blob from UEFI. So yes this require additional invesitation or eventual development. Thanks for input on this. I will add another card for this.
