And I'm saying they're too long - the preexisting ones and the ones
you're adding - and impair readability. This whole driver is one
unreadable ugly pile and if I were the maintainer I would never allowed
it in its current form.

But I don't think it really has a maintainer - poor Rafael has to deal
with it because it is under drivers/acpi/ and that whole RAS firmware
crap got thrown over the wall at some point and now we're stuck with it.

So this is just my opinion since he asked me to take a look.
