My assumption was indeed this.  If AER hasn't been granted to the OS,
it shouldn't be doing anything involving AER itself.  It should constrain
itself to dealing with the End Points etc due to the need there for
driver interaction.

I fully agree with the comment that the specifications aren't entirely
clear on these cases.

It is possible that no one is currently generating the particular
combination of severity bits in the APEI path to actually hit this.
It requires the outer record to be marked recoverable, but the inner
part to be marked fatal.  Kind of an odd mix.

In the GHES case, you get to this path by having a
Generic Error Status Block - recoverable (must not be fatal to avoid panic()
in APEI layer) containing one more more Generic Error Blocks, one of
which is fatal.

Response of our firmware team is that this particularly combination is
probably crazy.

So good to clean up this corner, but it is probably not a problem
anyone has actually hit so far.
