Tyler Baicar 42aa560446 acpi: apei: read ack upon ghes record consumption
A RAS (Reliability, Availability, Serviceability) controller
may be a separate processor running in parallel with OS
execution, and may generate error records for consumption by
the OS. If the RAS controller produces multiple error records,
then they may be overwritten before the OS has consumed them.

The Generic Hardware Error Source (GHES) v2 structure
introduces the capability for the OS to acknowledge the
consumption of the error record generated by the RAS
controller. A RAS controller supporting GHESv2 shall wait for
the acknowledgment before writing a new error record, thus
eliminating the race condition.

Add support for parsing of GHESv2 sub-tables as well.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
