[PATCH] Move cper.c from drivers/acpi/apei to drivers/firmware/efi

[Luck, Tony]

cper.c contains code to decode and print "Common Platform Error Records".
Originally added under drivers/acpi/apei because the only user was in that
same directory - but now we have another consumer, and we shouldn't have
to force CONFIG_ACPI_APEI get access to this code.

Since CPER is defined in the UEFI specification - the logical home for
this code is under drivers/firmware/efi/

Matt: as discussed earlier on the mailing list ... just looking
for your "Acked-by" so this can go on top of the patch series in
the x86/mce branch of the tip tree that already makes a bunch of
changes to cper.c

Based on Chen Gong's original patch that moved cper.c to lib/
