dct_base and dct_limit obtain 32 bit register values when they read
their respective pci config space registers. A left shift beyond 32 bits
will cause them to wrap around. Similar case for chan_addr as can be
seen from the bug report (link below). In the patch, we rectify this by
casting chan_addr to u64 and by comparing dct_base and dct_limit against
properly shifted sys_addr in order to compare the correct bits.

Thus it is cleaner to use a brand new function rather than adding quirks

Tested on Fam15h M30h with ECC turned on using mce_amd_inj facility and

It can happen that configurations are running in a single-channel mode
even with a dual-channel memory controller, by, say, putting the DIMMs
only on the one channel and leaving the other empty. This causes a
problem in init_csrows which implicitly assumes that when the second
channel is enabled, i.e. channel 1, the struct dimm hierarchy will be
present. Which is not.
So always allocate two channels unconditionally.
This provides for the nice side effect that the data structures are
initialized so some day, when memory hotplug is supported, it should
just work out of the box when all of a sudden a second channel appears.

The Sandy Bridge EDAC driver uses a register in the IMC_DDRIO CSR
space to determine the type of DIMMs (registered or unregistered).
But this device does not exist on some single socket Sandy Bridge
servers. While the type of DIMMs is nice to know, it is not essential
for this driver's other functions. So it seems harsh to have it
refuse to load at all when it cannot find this device.

"For:
- Some fixes at edac drivers (i7core_edac, sb_edac, i3200_edac);
- error injection support for i5100, when EDAC debug is enabled;
- fix edac when it is loaded builtin (early init for the subsystem);
- a "Firmware First" EDAC driver, allowing ghes to report errors via
EDAC (ghes-edac).
With regards to ghes-edac, this fixes a longstanding BZ at Red Hat
that happens with Nehalem and Sandy Bridge CPUs: when both GHES and
i7core_edac or sb_edac are running, the error reports are
unpredictable, as both BIOS and OS race to access the registers. With
ghes-edac, the EDAC core will refuse to register any other concurrent
memory error driver.
This patchset moves the ghes struct definitions to a separate header
file (include/acpi/ghes.h) and adds 3 hooks at apei/ghes.c to
register/unregister and to report errors via ghes-edac. Those changes

With the current version of CPER, there's no way to associate an
error with the memory error. So, the error location in EDAC
layers is unused.
As CPER has its own idea about memory architectural layers, just
output whatever is there inside the driver's detail at the RAS
tracepoint.
The EDAC location keeps untouched, in the case that, in some future,
we could actually map the error into the dimm labels.

APEI GHES and i7core_edac/sb_edac currently can be loaded at
the same time, but those are Highlander modules:
"There can be only one".
There are two reasons for that:
1) Each driver assumes that it is the only one registering at
the EDAC core, as it is driver's responsibility to number
the memory controllers, and all of them start from 0;
2) If BIOS is handling the memory errors, the OS can't also be
doing it, as one will mangle with the other.
So, we need to add an module owner's lock at the EDAC core,
in order to avoid having two different modules handling memory
errors at the same time. The best way for doing this lock seems
to use the driver's name, as this is unique, and won't require
changes on every driver.

There are some cases where the memory controller layout is
completely hidden. This is the case of firmware-driven error
code, like the one provided by GHES. Add a new layer to be
used on such memory error report mechanisms.
