ghes_proc() calls ghes_do_proc(). I have no clue what you mean here.

I still don't know what the problem is.

No, this is not what I meant. I mean, don't say "This patch does" or "This
commit does" or "This change ... " or whatnot as that is not necessary.

IOW:

"Make extlog_print() (ELOG) log consistently with ghes_proc() (GHES)
because... " and this is where you come in.

So let's start with the problem: what is it and why do you think it is
a problem?
