Also, we probably should stick to some order of arguments of those
functions for easier code staring, i.e.
function_name(ghes, estatus, buf_paddr, fixmap_idx)
or so.

Please make this chunk more user-friendly, maybe in a separate patch ontop:
/* Check the top-level record header has an appropriate size. */
int __ghes_check_estatus(struct ghes *ghes,
struct acpi_hest_generic_status *estatus)
{
u32 len = cper_estatus_len(estatus);
if (len < sizeof(*estatus)) {
pr_warn_ratelimited(FW_WARN GHES_PFX "Truncated error status
block!\n");
return -EIO;
}
if (len > ghes->generic->error_block_length) {
pr_warn_ratelimited(FW_WARN GHES_PFX "Invalid error status
block length!\n");
return -EIO;
}
if (cper_estatus_check_header(estatus)) {
pr_warn_ratelimited(FW_WARN GHES_PFX "Invalid CPER header!\n");
return -EIO;
}
return 0;
}
Thx.
