Let me paste from my previous email:

"If that is not possible with rasdaemon yet, then this patch should not
remove the error descriptions but limit them only to the families for
which they're valid.

Bottom line is, I don't want to have the situation mcelog is in where
decoding errors with it is a total disaster.

IOW, I'd like error decoding on AMD to always work and be trivially easy
to do."
