[v4,1/2] efi/cper: add cper_mem_err_status_str to decode error description

Introduce a new helper function cper_mem_err_status_str() which is used to
decode the description of error status, and the cper_print_mem() will call
it and report the details of error status.

Well, at least start them all with capital letters: "Component... " And
yes, I know this is how it is in the spec but the spec has typos and
other problems - doesn't mean we have to copy them too.

Trailing space here. Also what is PATH_ERROR?

That "PATH_ERROR" is nowhere else explained in that big fat UEFI spec.
2558 pages and they can't explain *that*. Geez.

Why do you insist on having two back-to-back strings instead of one
here?

(And don't tell me it is because the other function calls here do it
too.)

FWIW, even checkpatch complains here:

WARNING: Consecutive strings are generally better as a single string
#87: FILE: drivers/firmware/efi/cper.c:362:
+               printk("%s""error_status: %s (0x%016llx)\n",

Btw, please integrate scripts/checkpatch.pl into your patch creation
workflow. Some of the warnings/errors *actually* make sense.
