[PATCH] UEFI, CPER: Move cper.c to a more proper place

From: Luck, Tony
Date: Fri Oct 25 2013 - 12:39:16 EST


From: "Chen, Gong" <gong.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

CPER (Common Platform Error Record - See UEFI spec, appendix N) support
is implemented via cper.c, which is under drivers/acpi/apei. But it is
not APEI specific, nor even ACPI specific. So move it to lib/ as a function
library.

Chen Gong sent this to me internally for a review before posting
to the list - but I accidentally let the cat out of the bag by
pushing it in a git tree up to kernel.org. Posting now so we can
have some review. Hopefully some "Acked-by"s ... but I'd also be
happy to hear "No, lib/ isn't the right place it should go in ..."
