What's tricky about it?
Sure, there's a possibility that more than one entry could contribute to
a fault. But, you always know *IF* an entry could contribute to a fault.
I'm fine if you run through the logic, don't find a known reason
(specific RMP entry) for the fault, and dump the whole table in that
case. But, unconditionally polluting the kernel log with noise isn't
very nice for debugging.
The tricky part is to determine which undocumented bit to check to know
that we should stop dump. I can go with your suggestion that first try
with the known reasons and fallback to dump whole table for unknown
reasons only.
