The word 'mce' isn't too long. IMHO using 'mce' instead of 'm' as
a variable name is more meaningful :-).

struct mce mce;

The 'final' parameter should also be a pointer to this_cpu_ptr(&hw_errs_seen).
So, it's the final value with an entire 'mce_hw_err' structure stored to
' hw_errs_seen ', not just a 'mce' structure got stored in 'hw_errs_seen'.

So,
__mc_scan_banks(struct mce_hw_err *err, struct pt_regs *regs, struct mce_hw_err *final, ...
