The "alarm-state" in RFC 8348 (and EntityAlarmStatus in RFC 4268) is
just a summary of the alarms that may be active on the specific
hardware component.  It doesn't say anything about how alarms are
reported, and it doesn't provide any details of the alarms; it is just
a bitmask.

The alarm-module draft OTOH, specifies how alarms are reported,
generically.  It also provides a list of all active alarms.

So if both modules are implemented (they don't have to be), the
information can be viewed as redundant or just different views.
