Streamline and simplify formulations, improve formatting and extend the
injection example in the error injection write up for users which we
carry in Documentation/.
Add a paragraph about checking for EINJ support and expand the ACPI5.0
memory errors section, as requested by Tony.

When I added support for ACPI5 I made the assumption that
injected processor errors would just need to know the APICID,
memory errors just the address and mask, and PCIe errors just the
segment/bus/device/function. So I had the code check the type of injection
and multiplex the "param1" value appropriately.
This was not a good assumption :-(
There are injection scenarios where we need to specify more than one of
these items. E.g. injecting a cache error we need to specify an APICID
of the cpu that owns the cache, and also an address (so that we can trip
the error by accessing the address).
Add a "flags" file to give the user direct access to specify which items
are valid in the ACPI SET_ERROR_TYPE_WITH_ADDRESS structure. Also add
new files param3 and param4 to hold all these values.
For backwards compatability with old injection scripts we maintain the
old behaviour if flags remains set at zero (or is reset to 0).

To ensure EINJ working well when injecting errors via EINJ
table, add some restrictions: param1 must be a valid physical
RAM address and param2 must specify page granularity or
narrower.

Add description of parameter notrigger in the einj.txt.
One can utilize this new parameter to do some SRAR injection
test. Pay attention, the operation is highly depended on the
BIOS implementation. If no proper BIOS supports it, even if
enabling this parameter, expected result will not happen.
v2:
Update the documentation suggested by Tony

ACPI 5.0 provides extensions to the EINJ mechanism to specify the
target for the error injection - by APICID for cpu related errors,
by address for memory related errors, and by segment/bus/device/function
for PCIe related errors. Also extensions for vendor specific error
injections.

EINJ parameter support is only usable for some specific BIOS.
Originally, it is expected to have no harm for BIOS does not support
it. But now, we found it will cause issue (memory overwriting) for
some BIOS. So param support is disabled by default and only enabled
when newly added module parameter named "param_extension" is
explicitly specified.

Some hardware error injection needs parameters, for example, it is
useful to specify memory address and memory address mask for memory
errors.
Some BIOSes allow parameters to be specified via an unpublished
extension. This patch adds support to it. The parameters will be
ignored on machines without necessary BIOS support.
