You forgot to CC all people who participated in the previous discussion.

You seem to have forgotten to address the high-level feedback given by
the x86 maintainers.

All you've done is decreased the arch/x86/ footprint of the patch
series, but neither you nor Andi have addressed the technical arguments
against adding this ABI.

Nor have you engaged in conversation with the other EDAC people on how
to extend the existing interface, or even work towards creating
something new that would cater to all interested parties.

Not charmed at all by your attitude.
