Update the GHES error processing logic to taint the kernel when a recoverable or corrected hardware error is detected. If the error severity is GHES_SEV_RECOVERABLE or GHES_SEV_CORRECTED, the TAINT_HW_ERROR_RECOVERED flag is set. This allows users and support tools to identify systems that have experienced hardware issues that were recovered at runtime, improving traceability and diagnostics.
