Hi Smita,

A couple of comments below -

Why is the include dropped? AFAICT, the definitions from there are still
being used after this patch.

Adding the declaration to this include violates the separation of
generic and architecture specific code.

Can this be moved to the appropriate architecture specific header?
Perhaps arch/x86/include/asm/apei.h.

Why is the additional declaration needed?

Thanks,
