So ghes_edac *is* a poor man's driver in the sense that it doesn't do
anything fancy but repeat like a parrot data it has gotten from the
firmware and shoving it into the EDAC counters. At least that's the
intention. Nothing more. All the action stuff like error detection and
recovery should be done by the firmware.
But considering how SNAFU'd firmware is, I wouldn't expect any great RAS
functionality there. Of course, I'd be delighted to be proven wrong.
