Subject: [RFC PATCH v2] EDAC/amd64: Check for memory before fully initializing
 an instance

From: Yazen Ghannam <yazen.ghannam@....com>

Return early before checking for ECC if the node does not have any
populated memory.

Free any cached hardware data before returning. Also, return 0 in this
case since this is not a failure. Other nodes may have memory and the
module should attempt to load an instance for them.

Move printing of hardware information to after the instance is
initialized, so that the information is only printed for nodes with
memory.

v1->v2:
* Moved hardware info printing to after instance is initialized.
* Added message for when instance has no memory.
