has absolutely _ZERO_ place in the EDAC tree. It was submitted to
the x86 tree and was under discussion - i requested changes to it so
this current form has my NAK.
Please remove it from your tree and generally require your
contributors to submit all arch/x86 patches to the x86 maintainers.
Thanks,
Ingo
