BACKPORT: ACPI / APEI: Make hest.c manage the estatus memory pool
ghes.c has a memory pool it uses for the estatus cache and the estatus queue. The cache is initialised when registering the platform driver. For the queue, an NMI-like notification has to grow/shrink the pool as it is registered and unregistered. This is all pretty noisy when adding new NMI-like notifications, it would be better to replace this with a static pool size based on the number of users. As a precursor, move the call that creates the pool from ghes_init(), into hest.c. Later this will take the number of ghes entries and consolidate the queue allocations. Remove ghes_estatus_pool_exit() as hest.c doesn't have anywhere to put this. The pool is now initialised as part of ACPI's subsys_initcall(): (acpi_init(), acpi_scan_init(), acpi_pci_root_init(), acpi_hest_init()) Before this patch it happened later as a GHES specific device_initcall(). This patch is needed because Quicksilver firmware-first error handling uses the SDEI notification type for communication between trusted firmware and the OS. This adds needed NMI and SDEI functionality so that the SDEI path in the kernel through APEI acts as an NMI and is properly wired up to the APEI interfaces.
