With ACPI APEI firmware first handling, generic hardware error record is updated by firmware in GHES memory region. On an arm64 platform, firmware updates GHES memory region with uncached access attribute, and then Linux reads stale data from cache.
GHES memory region should be mapped with page protection type according to what is returned from arch_apei_get_mem_attribute(), instead of always with PAGE_KERNEL (eg. cached attribute).
