This error log driver (a.k.a eMCA driver) is implemented based on
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/enhanced-mca-logging-xeon-paper.htm l.
After errors are captured, more valuable information can be
got with this new enhanced error log driver.

v2 -> v1: eliminate spin_lock & minor fixes suggested by Boris

Yep, you can use the description from your 0/9 mail here.

So was this supposed to be 0xfffffffffffff, right?

Because that's bits 0 up to and including 51. In which case, it should
be GENMASK_ULL(51,0).

The rest are checkpatch minor issues below.
