It may be worth a comment explaining why we only do this for fatal errors. Something like:
| /* Fatal errors call __ghes_panic() before the AER handler gets to print this */

The convention in the rest of the file is for the prefix format string to be separate. i.e:
| "%s""aer_uncor_status: ..."

Could it be the same for consistency?
