It would be nice to have a stub definition when !CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_SEI,
e.g.

#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_SEI
int ghes_notify_sei(void);
#else
static in int ghes_notify_sei(void) { return -ENOENT; }
#endif

... as callers could simply call this without additional checks.

As a cleanup, similar would be nice for ghes_notify_sea() with
CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_SEA.

Thanks,
Mark.
