How is your error reporting supposed to work?
Your driver is printing error information in dmesg and, at the same
time, you want to report errors with the rasdaemon.
Currently, the kernel does not report any error info if there's a user
agent like rasdaemon registered so you need to think about what exactly
you're trying to achieve here wrt to error handling. Port resetting,
printing error info, etc. Always ask yourself, what can the user do with
the information you're printing. And so on...

Yes, I would very much prefer to have a generic solution instead of
vendor-specific stuff left and right.
Thx.
