PCIe AER fatal errors result panic here.
I think ghes_cper_severity to be replaced with ghes_severity in the ghes_proc 
function as well in the patch
"acpi: apei: Do not panic() on PCIe errors reported through GHES"?

Hmm.
ghes_proc calls ghes_do_proc, which is not irq safe. So the entire concern we had in v1 about deferring to a less restrictive context is moot in this case.

ghes_proc is related, but a little beyond the scope of this series. I'd love to fix all cases, but I'd prefer someone who has specific interests take ownership of changing ghes_proc.
