Subject: [PATCH 0/6] Enhance AMD SMN Error Checking

Hi all,

This set implements more robust error checking for AMD System Management
Network (SMN) accesses.

This set is a follow up to this discussion:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230403164244.471141-1-yazen.ghannam@amd.com/

Patches 1-3:
	- Pre-patches in AMD64 EDAC and K10Temp modules.
	- Required in order to avoid build warnings with the
	  introduction of the __must_check attribute in patch 4.
Patch 4:
	- Introduces __must_check attribute for SMN access functions.
	- Handles "PCI Error Response" behavior for SMN reads.
Patches 5-6:
	- Optional cleanup patches in k10temp.
	- Not required for the SMN access issue, but I thought they may
	  be good to do.

I've included x86 platform driver folks for awareness, since there are
some AMD SMN users there.

Thanks,
Yazen
