Subject: [PATCH v3 0/8] Enhance AMD SMN Error Checking

Hi all,

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

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.

Patches 7-8:
	- Minor changes in k10temp.
	- Fix W=2 warnings found during build testing.

Also, please note that this set was prepared with b4:
https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/contributor/overview.html

Apologies if I mishandled anything. This is a new workflow for me. :)

Thanks,
Yazen
