Pull EDAC fixes and ghes-edac from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"For:
- Some fixes at edac drivers (i7core_edac, sb_edac, i3200_edac);
- error injection support for i5100, when EDAC debug is enabled;
- fix edac when it is loaded builtin (early init for the subsystem);
- a "Firmware First" EDAC driver, allowing ghes to report errors via
EDAC (ghes-edac).
With regards to ghes-edac, this fixes a longstanding BZ at Red Hat
that happens with Nehalem and Sandy Bridge CPUs: when both GHES and
i7core_edac or sb_edac are running, the error reports are
unpredictable, as both BIOS and OS race to access the registers. With
ghes-edac, the EDAC core will refuse to register any other concurrent
memory error driver.
This patchset moves the ghes struct definitions to a separate header
file (include/acpi/ghes.h) and adds 3 hooks at apei/ghes.c to
register/unregister and to report errors via ghes-edac. Those changes
were acked by ghes driver maintainer (Huang)."
