Yes, we have this scenario on Xilinx ZynqMP platform where we have both
the drivers (zynqmp_ocm_edac - OCM Controller and synopsys_edac - DDR
Memory Controller) probed at the same time.
We tested this scenario on our platform (arm based), and we see both the 
controllers getting probed and tested by injecting errors.

Probe log for both the controllers:
