Add support for ARMv8 Common Platform Error Record (CPER).
UEFI 2.6 specification adds support for ARMv8 specific
processor error information to be reported as part of the
CPER records. This provides more detail on for processor error logs.
I think I'm missing a big part of the puzzle here, I will come back to this next
week. I can't quite line up some of the masks and shifts with the table
descriptions in the UEFI spec[0].

It looks like there was some misunderstanding when the context info parsing was added here
(probably because the spec has some issues that I describe below).
I'll need to clean quite a bit of the context info parsing up. I didn't catch this earlier because
we aren't reporting context info in firmware right now for the errors I have been testing.

Nit: UEFI v2.6 N.2.2 (table 249) describes this as 'ARM' not 'ARMV8' (which is
an architectural version).

I'll change it in the next set.

Table 260 describes both ERR_INFO_NUM and CONTEXT_INFO_NUM for as both being
2bytes long, as does your struct cper_sec_proc_armv8 below. Are these for
something else? Do these correspond with one of the four bitfield formats
described in Table 262->265?

I can't see where they are used, and they look like they are reaching across
multiple fields in a struct.

I will remove these as they aren't needed.

Are these the worst case sizes for combinations of the structures in N2.4.4.2?
(Tables 266 to 273)

If so is there any chance they could be sizeof(<some union of structs>), even if
the structs are things like:
/* ARMv8 AArch64 GPRs (Type 4) - defined in UEFI Spec N2.4.4.2 */
struct cper_armv8_aarch64_gprs {
u64 regs[32];
}
This way its easier to check the number is correct, and if a new type is added
this won't get forgotten.

These were representing the sizes of table 266 and table 267, but looking at this more it seems
like some of the spec doesn't make sense:

Table 260 has the Processor Context field which only mentions tables 266 and 267.
I think that should really be tables 266 - 274 representing all 9 context types.

Table 265 then has the Register Array field which mentions the contents of the array
are described in tables 267 - 271. I think this also should be tables 266 - 274 to cover
all 9 context types.

And then the text before table 274 is clearly wrong calling it table 275...seems like there
are several mistakes in the table numbering mentioned in this section.

I'm going to need to update the context info parsing code and add the other register array
sizes based on all of the context tables. Looks like the code will need to be restructured
some because otherwise there will be quite a bit of duplication.

Again, I can't work out what these correspond to. I can't see a secure bit or EL
field in any of those UEFI tables.

Is this one of the 'ARM Vendor Specific Micro-Architecture Error Structure's? If
so we should have some infrastructure for picking the correct (or unknown)
decode function based on a range of MIDRs.

These will be removed. The exception level and secure context information will be covered by
which register context type is being reported.

0 – AArch32 GPRs (General Purpose Registers).
1 -- AArch32 EL1 context registers
2 -- AArch32 EL2 context registers
3 -- Aarch32 secure context registers
4 – AArch64 GPRs
5 -- AArch64 EL1 context registers
6 – Aarch64 EL2 context registers
7 -- AArch64 EL3 context registers

Is this:
"Table 265. ARM Processor Error Context Information Header Structure"?

This structure should be removed, it doesn't get used in code now.

Thanks,
Tyler
