UEFI spec allows for non-standard section in Common Platform Error
Record. This is defined in section N.2.3 of UEFI version 2.5.

If Section Type field of Generic Error Data Entry indicates a
non-standard section (eg. matchs a vendor proprietary GUID as defined
in include/linux/cper.h), print out the raw data in hex in dmesg
buffer. Data length is taken from Error Data length field of
Generic Error Data Entry.

Following is a sample output from dmesg:
{1}[Hardware Error]: Hardware error from APEI Generic Hardware Error Source: 2

checkpatch.pl gives following warnings on this patch:
     WARNING: printk() should include KERN_ facility level
This is a false warning as pfx parameter includes KERN_ facility
level. Also such practice is consistent with the rest of the file.

No, no vendor-specific stuff like that. This becomes a nightmare to
maintain...
Got it. I will take the feedback and print data of "unknown" sections
as is.

We already pass down const char *pfx - no need for retranslation.
The reason I did re-translation is because print_hex_dump() asks for two
parameters, one for level, another for prefix string. In our case, pfx
already includes both of them. Since print_hex_dump() simply
concatenates level and prefix string together, I will not do the
re-translation, but pass pfx as the level parameter, and pass empty
string as the prefix string parameter to print_hex_dump().

... you simply dump the section in binary if none of the standard
UUIDs match. And you can then turn the "unknown" message into a
vendor-specific one.
Sure.
