From: Noam Camus <noamca@mellanox.com> This commit adds the configuration CONFIG_EZNPS_MEM_ERROR. If set, it will cause the kernel to handle user memory error as a machine check exception. It is required in order to align the NPS simulator memory error handling to the one of the NPS400 real chip behavior.
