ACPI / APEI: Switch estatus pool to use vmalloc memory The ghes code is careful to parse and round firmware's advertised memory requirements for CPER records, up to a maximum of 64K. However when ghes_estatus_pool_expand() does its work, it splits the requested size into PAGE_SIZE granules. This means if firmware generates 5K of CPER records, and correctly describes this in the table, __process_error() will silently fail as it is unable to allocate more than PAGE_SIZE. Switch the estatus pool to vmalloc() memory. On x86 vmalloc() memory may fault and be fixed up by vmalloc_fault(). To prevent this call vmalloc_sync_all() before an NMI handler could discover the memory.
