Right, a couple of suggestions:

* please don't mix different subsystems in a single patch: EDAC should be one
patch and fs another.

* Documentation/edac.txt is pretty old and has more errors than this one
so it would be much better to create a single patch which scrubs that
file properly and thoroughly.

Also, while you're at it, please run the driver and verify that all the
functionality described there actually works and document any changes
you might find which are deviating from the document. And if anything is
broken, you might even try to fix it, if you'd like :-) - patches are
always welcome.

Thanks.
