This is still on the stack. My previous comment:

"You could preallocate this on driver init so you don't do relatively
big stack allocations on the error reporting path and remain lean."

"If you memset(p, 0,...) here, after consumption, you don't need to do

the next error."

Looks like you've missed those two points.

With all the more or less redundant commenting in this driver, the *one*
line which definitely needs a comment is without one:

/*
* Start capturing the correctable and uncorrectable errors. A write of
* 0 starts the counters.
