<content type='text'>
Move all the EDAC core functionality behind CONFIG_EDAC and get rid of
that indirection. Update defconfigs which had it.

While at it, fix dependencies such that EDAC depends on RAS for the
tracepoints.

Use mc_devices list instead to check whether we have EDAC driver
instances successfully registered with EDAC core.

<title>x86/nmi, EDAC: Get rid of DRAM error reporting thru PCI SERR NMI</title>

<id>urn:sha1:db47d5f856467ce0dd3af7e20a33df3d901266df</id>
<content type='text'>
Apparently, some machines used to report DRAM errors through a PCI SERR
NMI. This is why we have a call into EDAC in the NMI handler. See

  c0d121720220 ("drivers/edac: add new nmi rescan").

From looking at the patch above, that's two drivers: e752x_edac.c and
e7xxx_edac.c. Now, I wanna say those are old machines which are probably
decommissioned already.

Tony says that "[t]the newest CPU supported by either of those drivers
is the Xeon E7520 (a.k.a. "Nehalem") released in Q1'2010. Possibly some
folks are still using these ... but people that hold onto h/w for 7
years generally cling to old s/w too ... so I'd guess it unlikely that
we will get complaints for breaking these in upstream."

So even if there is a small number still in use, we did load EDAC with
edac_op_state == EDAC_OPSTATE_POLL by default (we still do, in fact)
which means a default EDAC setup without any parameters supplied on the
command line or otherwise would never even log the error in the NMI
handler because we're polling by default:

  inline int edac_handler_set(void)
  {
         if (edac_op_state == EDAC_OPSTATE_POLL)
                 return 0;

         return atomic_read(&amp;edac_handlers);
  }

So, long story short, I'd like to get rid of that nastiness called
edac_stub.c and confine all the EDAC drivers solely to drivers/edac/. If
we ever have to do stuff like that again, it should be notifiers we're
using and not some insanity like this one.

<title>EDAC: Rip out the edac_subsys reference counting</title>

This was really dumb - reference counting for the main EDAC sysfs
object. While we could've simply registered it as the first thing in the
module init path and then hand it around to what needs it.

Do that and rip out all the code around it, thus simplifying the whole
handling significantly.

Move the edac_subsys node back to edac_module.c.

&lt;asm/edac.h&gt; contains only the arch-specific scrubbing function and is
thus not needed in edac_stub.c. Kill it.

This new parameter is used to control how to report HW error reporting,
especially for newer Intel platform, like Ivybridge-EX, which contains
an enhanced error decoding functionality in the firmware, i.e. eMCA.
