Ah, and I wasn't precise: there are also arch/arm/mach-socfpga/ changes
which I'm going to take through the EDAC tree *only* if ARM people ack

And by "ARM people" and from looking at get_maintainer output I mean
Dinh and he's on CC ...

Yeah, it is a "just in case" thing - it might just as well be too

Good, thanks!

Also, if something's not right in drivers/edac/debugfs.c wrt usability
and so on, feel free to propose changes. I've extracted it there because
I didn't want every driver to reinvent the wheel.

Thanks.
