The GHES records are queued just for printk.

Because we are still waiting for perf based hardware error logging/recovering infrastructure. I think we can take #6 and #8 for now and maybe replace them with perf based solution when that is ready. BTW: Can you take a look at another patch with following title? [PATCH] ACPI, APEI, Add APEI _OSC support https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/5/25/28 This is needed to enable GHES reporting in firmware on some machines.
