Can you add a #define for the AET shift in the Srror ISS, please? (we have
other blocks in this file for different abort types). e.g.
/* ISS fields definitions for SError interrupts */
#define ESR_ELx_AER_SHIFT 10
then use it below.

I think you should add an IDS field along with the AET one I suggested.

Hmm, this means we can't distinguish impdef or RES0 encodings from
uncontainable errors. Is that desirable?
Also, could we end up in a situation where some CPUs support RAS and some
don't, so arm64_is_ras_serror returns false yet a correctable error is
reported by one the CPUs and we treat it as uncontainable?

Since you asked... what about "fatal" instead of "blocking"?
