Yes, now try to decode the error with rasdaemon this way, by supplying
the fields.

Then explain step-by-step what you've done in the commit message and in
a documentation file in Documentation/ras/ so that people can find it
and can actually do the decoding themselves.

It needs to be absolutely easy to decode those errors. Not tell people:
"go look for the error description in the PPR".

Thx.
