Subject: [PATCH 0/4] Updates to EDAC and AMD MCE driver

This patchset mainly provides necessary EDAC bits to decode errors
occuring on Scalable MCA enabled processors and also updates AMD MCE
driver to get correct MCx_MISC register address for upcoming processors.
Patches 1 ans 2 are meant for the upcoming processors.

Patches 3 and 4 are either fixing or adding comments to help in
understanding the code and do not introduce any functional changes.

Patch 1: Updates to EDAC driver to decode the new error signatures
Patch 2: Fix logic to get correct block address
Patch 3: Fix deferred error comment
Patch 4: Add comments to mce_amd.c to describe functionality

Tested the patches for regressions on Fam15h, Fam10h systems
and found none.

Aravind Gopalakrishnan (4):
  EDAC, MCE, AMD: Enable error decoding of Scalable MCA errors
  x86/mce/AMD: Fix logic to obtain block address
  x86/mce: Clarify comments regarding deferred error
  x86/mce/AMD: Add comments for easier understanding
