Yes this portion (and coming to the realization that a lot of other 
parts) of the
code is specific to our topology. Is there any way to detect this? 
ERRIDR reports
how many records there are but not what each record is for. Without this 
information,
not sure how there could be a generic interrupt based driver.

I should probably amend a previous statement about this all being 
defined in RAS. Didn't realize this initially
but as you have mentioned, even though the registers are architected, 
the decoding/bits within the registers are
implementation defined. So within the driver, some of the "magically 
known" values are because as it is right now,
the decodings and some behavior is specific to our implementation.

To more generalize this, would it be better to (after checking the 
IDR/FR registers) to instead just dump out the
ERRXSTATUS/ERRXMISC directly, and then have registered callbacks to 
actually properly decode the values into
something more readable?

Thanks,
Kyle
