Subject: [PATCH 6/6] EDAC/amd64: Set grain per DIMM

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

The following commit introduced a warning on error reports without a
non-zero grain value.

  3724ace582d9 ("EDAC/mc: Fix grain_bits calculation")

The amd64_edac_mod module does not provide a value, so the warning will
be given on the first reported memory error.

Set the grain per DIMM to cacheline size (64 bytes). This is the current
recommendation.

Fixes: 3724ace582d9 ("EDAC/mc: Fix grain_bits calculation")
