Looks good to me, a few minor comments below.

Compared to the rest of the file, this:
>	printk("%s""section length: %d\n", pfx, proc->section_length);

would be more in keeping. I guess its done this way to avoid some spurious
warning about %ssection not being recognised by printk().

This calculation is all based on values in the 'struct cper_sec_proc_arm', is it
worth making more noise about how the firmware-generated record is incorrectly
formatted? If we see this message its not the kernel's fault!

This field is described as a bit field in table 260, can we print it as 0x%lx in
case additional bits are set?

This is described as unsigned in table 261.

Table 261 also has an 'overflow' bit in flags. It may be worth printing a
warning if this is set:

ARRAY_SIZE() - 1?

%u - just in case it is surprisingly large!

This is the only processor-specific entry in this function,
CPER_SEC_PROC_{IA,IPF} don't appear anywhere else in the tree.

Is it worth adding an (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM64) || IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM)) in
the if()? This would let the compiler remove cper_print_proc_arm(() on x86/ia64
systems which won't ever see a record of this type.


Thanks!
