[PATCH v4 0/8] Enhance AMD SMN Error Checking

From: Yazen Ghannam
Date: Thu Jun 06 2024 - 12:17:02 EST


Hi all,

This set implements more robust error checking for AMD System Management
Network (SMN) accesses.

Patches 1-3:
- Pre-patches in AMD64 EDAC and K10Temp modules.
- Required in order to avoid build warnings with the
introduction of the __must_check attribute in patch 4.

Patch 4:
- Introduces __must_check attribute for SMN access functions.

Patches 5-6:
- Optional cleanup patches in k10temp.
- Not required for the SMN access issue, but I thought they may
be good to do.

Patches 7-8:
- Minor changes in k10temp.
- Fix W=2 warnings found during build testing.

Thanks,
Yazen
