Title:
  Kernel outputs lots of warning of the form [Firmware Warn]: GHES:
  Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source:
  10.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  On a Supermicro X7SB4 based system the kernel outputs a host of error
  messages of the form:

  [  713.444010] ghes_read_estatus: 11 callbacks suppressed
  [  713.444014] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 10.
  [  713.520005] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 10.
  [  713.836007] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 9.
  [  714.476007] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 10.
  [  714.556005] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 10.
  [  715.236008] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 9.
  [  715.444005] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 10.
  [  715.556005] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 10.
  [  715.756006] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 9.
  [  716.236007] [Firmware Warn]: GHES: Failed to read error status block address for hardware error source: 9.

  This happens with 32-bit kernels (both -pae and non-pae). This may or
  may not be a duplicate of bug 881164 (this is for a Precise kernel and
  the hardware is not Dell PowerEdge).

  WORKAROUND: Use kernel parameter:
  ghes.disable=1
