OK, got your point.
Sorry for sending v13 before checking this with you.

so I will do :

@@ -232,8 +243,9 @@ void __init acpi_hest_init(void)
  goto err;
  }

- if (!acpi_disable_cmcff)
- apei_hest_parse(hest_parse_cmc, NULL);
+ rc =apei_hest_parse(hest_parse_cmc, NULL);
+ if (rc)
+ goto err;

  if (!ghes_disable) {
  rc = apei_hest_parse(hest_parse_ghes_count, &ghes_count);

Do you have other suggestion? then I can post v14 to fix it :-)
