This patch also adds support for parsing GHESv2 sub-tables.
Before they would be rejected as an unknown hardware error source.

Nit: the patch author's Sign-off should come first, you either need a 'From:
Jonathan (Zhixiong) Zhang ...' on this patch, or re-order these Signed-off-by's.

IS_ HEST_TYPE_GENERIC_V2() ? (for the sake of readability)

Is this bit_offset shifting needed in case the read_ack_register is in the
'system io' (or embedded controller) address space and shares a register with
some other stuff?

The read_ack_{preserve,write} values are u64, so if bit_offset is non-zero the
high order bits get lost, but both ends of this are in the firmware's control.

(I assumed this thing would always be in memory and these fields would never be
used - but I guess that isn't true!)

Looks good to me, for what its worth:
