If the spec calls it non-standard why are we calling it "unknown
section"?

That's sentence sounds funny.

Never write "This commit" or "This patch" in your commit message -
that's a given.

Put that in a function in ras.c along with a prototype for
include/linux/ras.h for the !CONFIG_RAS case so that you can save
yourself the ifdeffery in an already not really easy to read function.
