No, this would break the logic in EDAC.
The main reason I placed it in separate enums is because the "mca_type" 
values map to the enum.

These blocks-

+	SMCA_LS,		/* - Load Store */
+	SMCA_IF,		/* - Instruction Fetch */
+	SMCA_L2_CACHE,		/* - L2 cache */
+	SMCA_DE,		/* - Decoder unit */
+	RES,			/* - Reserved */
+	SMCA_EX,		/* - Execution unit */
+	SMCA_FP,		/* - Floating Point */
+	SMCA_L3_CACHE,		/* - L3 cache */


have the same hwid value (0xb0). But they differ in mca_type values. And 
in exactly that order.
(LS is mca_type 0, IF is mca_type 1 and so on..)

So, after we get mca_type value from the MSR (mca_type = (high & 
MCI_IPID_MCATYPE) >> 16),
We check for LS (=0) or IF (=1) ...
With this change, LS block is assigned 1 due to the ordering in enum.

And this logic applies to "DF" block as well.  (whose component blocks 
are "coherent slave" and "pie" which have mca_type values of 0 and 1 
respectively)
"DF" and "F17h_core" are essentially parent blocks and CS, PIE, LS, IF 
etc are children. hwid indicates the parent, mca_type indicates the child..

These strings are what I intend to use for the sysfs interface.
So, I am not sure if "PwrMan/Intr" would work when I need to create the 
kobj..

Also, the legacy names use snake_case-
static const char * const th_names[] = {
         "load_store",
         "insn_fetch",
         "combined_unit",
         "",
         "northbridge",
         "execution_unit",
};

So, I think we should continue this approach and have something like this-
static const char * const amd_core_mcablock_names[] = {
         [SMCA_LS]         = "load_store",
         [SMCA_IF]         = "insn_fetch",
         [SMCA_L2_CACHE]   = "l2_cache",
         [SMCA_DE]         = "decode_unit",
         [RES]                   = "",
         [SMCA_EX]         = "execution_unit",
         [SMCA_FP]         = "floating_point",
         [SMCA_L3_CACHE]   = "l3_cache",
};

static const char * const amd_df_mcablock_names[] = {
         [SMCA_CS]  = "coherent_slave",
         [SMCA_PIE] = "pie",
};

(Split arrays again because I feel it'd be better to have arrays ordered 
according to mca_type values)

Expanding "df" to "data_fabric" and "pb" to "param_block" is fine with me.

This wouldn't work because of the mca_type ordering as mentioned above.
(Or it should be amd_core_mcablock_names[mca_type])

Ditto.

This should be amd_hwids[i].name
We shouldn't be using mca_type value as index..
