Can multiple bits be set in principle, belonging to different reasons?
Also, wouldn't a clean, readable text array and find_first_bit() result
in more readable and more maintainable code?
Which can be initialized thusly:
static const char *s6_reset_reason_txt[] = {
[0] = "trip of thermal pin BP_THERMTRIP_L",
[1] = "power button",
[2] = "shutdown pin",
[4] = "remote ASF power off command",
[9] = "internal CPU thermal trip",
...
};
Also the text should probably be expanded into standard noun+verb
sentences or so, to make it all less ambiguous:
static const char *s6_reset_reason_txt[] = {
[0] = "thermal pin BP_THERMTRIP_L was tripped",
[1] = "power button was pressed",
[2] = "shutdown pin was shorted",
[4] = "remote ASF power off command was received",
[9] = "internal CPU thermal limit was tripped",
...
};
etc. Note the deliberate use of past tense, to make it clear this
refers to a previous event, while usually syslog events indicate
current events.

0xFED803C0 is a magic number, please define a symbol for it.

Please make the source of this printout a bit more specific, something
like:
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason [%0x08x]: %s
or so? Also note how grepped output will be easier to read due to
flipping the fixed-width numeric and the variable-length text output:
# Before:
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: thermal pin BP_THERMTRIP_L was tripped (0x00000001)
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: power button was pressed (0x00000002)
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: shutdown pin was shorted (0x00000004)
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: remote ASF power off command was received (0x00000010)
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: internal CPU thermal limit was tripped (0x00000200)
# After:
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: [0x00000001]: thermal pin BP_THERMTRIP_L was tripped
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: [0x00000002]: power button was pressed
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: [0x00000004]: shutdown pin was shorted
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: [0x00000010]: remote ASF power off command was received
x86/amd/Fam17h: Previous system reset reason: [0x00000200]: internal CPU thermal limit was tripped
Thanks,
Ingo
