Nit: please place newline before the new include, since it comes from a
different directory (and we do so in fault.c).

In do_serror() we already handle nmi_{enter,exit}(), so there's no need
for that here.

TBH, I don't understand why do_sea() does that conditionally today.
Unless there's some constraint I'm missing, I think it would make more
sense to do that regardless of whether the interrupted context had
interrupts enabled. James -- does that make sense to you?

If you update the prior patch with a stub for !CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_SEI, you
can simplify all of the above additions down to:

	if (!ghes_notify_sei())
		return;

... which would look a lot nicer.

Thanks,
Mark.
