Subject: [GIT PULL] amd64_edac patchqueue for .36

[ Forgot to add LKML to CC ]

Hi Linus,

please pull the following patchqueue of mostly cleanups and fixes.

On thing that stands out is the removal of EDAC's quirky polling
mechanism in favor of using the MCE decoder notifier chain for non-fatal
MCEs (of which CECCs are part of). Thus the out-of-tree oneliner to
<arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.c> which Ingo already acked.

Thanks.
