The memory error record structure includes as its first field a bitmask of which subsequent fields are valid. The allows new fields to be added to the structure while keeping compatibility with older software that parses these records. This mechanism was used between versions 2.2 and 2.3 to add four new fields, growing the size of the structure from 73 bytes to 80. But Linux just added all the new fields so this test: if (gdata->error_data_length >= sizeof(*mem_err)) cper_print_mem(newpfx, mem_err); else goto err_section_too_small; now make Linux complain about old format records being too short. Add a definition for the old format of the structure and use that for the minimum size check. Pass the actual size to cper_print_mem() so it can sanity check the validation_bits field to ensure that if a BIOS using the old format sets bits as if it were new, we won't access fields beyond the end of the structure.
