[PATCH 0/2] Make ELOG log and trace consistently with GHES

["Fabio M. De Francesco" <fabio.m.de.francesco@linux.intel.com>]

When Firmware First is enabled, BIOS handles errors first and then it
makes them available to the kernel via the Common Platform Error Record
(CPER) sections (UEFI 2.10 Appendix N). Linux parses the CPER sections
via one of two similar paths, either ELOG or GHES.

Currently, ELOG and GHES show some inconsistencies in how they print to
the kernel log as well as in how they report to userspace via trace
events.

Make the two mentioned paths act similarly for what relates to logging
and tracing.

--- Changes for v1 ---

	- Drop the RFC prefix and restart from PATCH v1
	- Drop patch 3/3 because a discussion on it has not yet been
	  settled
	- Drop namespacing in export of pci_print_aer while() (Dan)
	- Don't use '#ifdef' in *.c files (Dan)
	- Drop a reference on pdev after operation is complete (Dan)
	- Don't log an error message if pdev is NULL (Dan)

--- Changes for RFC v2 ---
	
	- 0/3: rework the subject line and the letter.
        - 1/3: no changes.
        - 2/3: trace CPER PCIe Section only if CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_PCIEAER
          is defined; the kernel test robot reported the use of two
          undefined symbols because the test for the config option was
          missing; rewrite the subject line and part of commit message.
        - 3/3: no changes.
