Huang Yiwei 99d4011a0a firmware: SDEI: Allow sdei initialization without ACPI_APEI_GHES
[ Upstream commit 59529bbe642de4eb2191a541d9b4bae7eb73862e ]

SDEI usually initialize with the ACPI table, but on platforms where
ACPI is not used, the SDEI feature can still be used to handle
specific firmware calls or other customized purposes. Therefore, it
is not necessary for ARM_SDE_INTERFACE to depend on ACPI_APEI_GHES.

In commit dc4e8c07e9 ("ACPI: APEI: explicit init of HEST and GHES
in acpi_init()"), to make APEI ready earlier, sdei_init was moved
into acpi_ghes_init instead of being a standalone initcall, adding
ACPI_APEI_GHES dependency to ARM_SDE_INTERFACE. This restricts the
flexibility and usability of SDEI.

This patch corrects the dependency in Kconfig and splits sdei_init()
into two separate functions: sdei_init() and acpi_sdei_init().
sdei_init() will be called by arch_initcall and will only initialize
the platform driver, while acpi_sdei_init() will initialize the
device from acpi_ghes_init() when ACPI is ready. This allows the
initialization of SDEI without ACPI_APEI_GHES enabled.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
