While looking at this, I noticed that we seem to be using varying field
widths in our APEI code:
- einj.c has two instances using %#010llx.
- apei-base.c uses widths of 10 (4 bytes) and 6 (2 bytes).

Not sure if these are intentional and those fields truly aren't 64-bit
(as suggested by the usage of long long int).
