In the firmware-first RAS solution, guest OS receives an synchronous
external abort, then trapped to EL3 by SCR_EL3.EA. Firmware inspects
the HCR_EL2.TEA and chooses the target to send APEI's SEA notification.
If the SCR_EL3.EA is set, delegates the error exception to the hypervisor,
otherwise it delegates to the guest OS kernel

correct the commit message:
In the firmware-first RAS solution, OS receives an synchronous
external abort, then trapped to EL3 by SCR_EL3.EA. Firmware inspects
the HCR_EL2.TEA and chooses the target to send APEI's SEA notification.
If the SCR_EL3.EA is set, delegates the error exception to the hypervisor,
otherwise it delegates to the host OS kernel

This commit text has nothing (directly) to do with the content of the
patch. Whether or not seting these bits are used by firmware to emulate
injecting an exception or by the CPU raising a an exception is not the
core of the issue.
Please describe your change, then provide rationale.
Thanks,

(1)Below hcr_el2.TEA/TERR two field is introduced by armv8.2, RAS extension.
TEA, bit [37]
Route synchronous External Abort exceptions to EL2. The possible values of this bit are:
0 Do not route synchronous External Abort exceptions from Non-secure EL0 and EL1 to EL2.
1 Route synchronous External Abort exceptions from Non-secure EL0 and EL1 to EL2, if not routed
to EL3.
This bit is RES0 if the RAS extension is not implemented.
TERR, bit [36]
Trap Error record accesses. The possible values of this bit are:
0 Do not trap accesses to error record registers from Non-secure EL1 to EL2.
1 Accesses to the ER* registers from Non-secure EL1 generate a Trap exception to EL2.
This bit is RES0 if the RAS extension is not implemented.
(2) when synchronous External Abort(SEA) OS happen SEA, it trap to EL3 firmware.
then the firmware needs to do by faking an exception entry to hypervisor EL2; or
by faking an exception entry to EL1
so if the hcr_el2.TEA is set, firmware will eret to EL2; otherwise, eret to EL1.
hcr_el2.TEA is only set for the guest OS.
not set for the host OS.
(3) setting hcr_el2.HCR_TERR want to trap the EL1 error record access to EL2.

So again, I was more asking for a new commit message for the next
version of the patch rather than an explanation here. But I the commit
message should not mention assumptions about how EL3 firmware works, but
try to stay within the semantics laid out by the ARM architecture.
For example:
ARMv8.2 introduces two new bits, TEA and TERR, which [...]. When RAS
is available, we set these bits on the HCR_EL2, because we want to
take external aborts to EL2 in order for [...].
