+NPA Reporters
+-------------
+The NPA reporters are responsible for reporting and recovering the following group of errors
+1. GENERAL events
+ - Error due to operation of unmapped PF.
+ - Error due to disabled alloc/free for other HW blocks (NIX, SSO, TIM, DPI and AURA).
+2. ERROR events
+ - Fault due to NPA_AQ_INST_S read or NPA_AQ_RES_S write.
+ - AQ Doorbell Error.
+3. RAS events
+ - RAS Error Reporting for NPA_AQ_INST_S/NPA_AQ_RES_S.
+4. RVU events
+ - Error due to unmapped slot.
