Yeah, but we can't write

"We just corrected a single-bit flip in DIMM array <foo> - it was
supposed to be X but now it is Y. Don't worry, this bit flip had no

I just don't want to call a "Hardware Error" a "Hardware Event".
Besides, an IRQ is a hardware event too, for example. You can see where
I'm getting with this...
