we should definitely have a drm function to register it instead of hard-coding
it here, regardless if we go with the group split or not.
It is not okay forcing this to every platform, even the ones without any RAS
available for instance.

this is another space that is strange. you declare it here and drm
magically uses it. Another reason for more explicity registration.
and with the struct drm_ras where these commands are part of that.
as well as the group name, etc.
