I haven't looked at it yet but I'd prefer if this patch went the normal way and landed in stable only eventually so that it gets some testing by people in linux-next first. It is not a trivial patch and we did break EDAC with recent rework so I'd prefer if we take it slowly here and do more extensive testing before we expose it to the world. Also, how does this patch play with your cleanup? I'm guessing this patch goes first and then the cleanup... -- Regards/Gruss, Boris. https://people.kernel.org/tglx/notes-about-netiquette
