Subject: [PATCH 3.12 80/82] drivers/edac/edac_mc_sysfs.c: poll timeout cannot be zero

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@...hat.com>

commit 79040cad3f8235937e229f1b9401ba36dd5ad69b upstream.

If you do

  echo 0 > /sys/module/edac_core/parameters/edac_mc_poll_msec

the following stack trace is output because the edac module is not
designed to poll with a timeout of zero.
