Use mc_devices list instead to check whether we have EDAC driver
instances successfully registered with EDAC core.

Apparently, some machines used to report DRAM errors through a PCI SERR
NMI. This is why we have a call into EDAC in the NMI handler. See
c0d1217202 ("drivers/edac: add new nmi rescan").
From looking at the patch above, that's two drivers: e752x_edac.c and
e7xxx_edac.c. Now, I wanna say those are old machines which are probably
decommissioned already.
Tony says that "[t]the newest CPU supported by either of those drivers
is the Xeon E7520 (a.k.a. "Nehalem") released in Q1'2010. Possibly some
folks are still using these ... but people that hold onto h/w for 7
years generally cling to old s/w too ... so I'd guess it unlikely that
we will get complaints for breaking these in upstream."
So even if there is a small number still in use, we did load EDAC with
edac_op_state == EDAC_OPSTATE_POLL by default (we still do, in fact)
which means a default EDAC setup without any parameters supplied on the
command line or otherwise would never even log the error in the NMI
handler because we're polling by default:
inline int edac_handler_set(void)
{
if (edac_op_state == EDAC_OPSTATE_POLL)
return 0;
return atomic_read(&edac_handlers);
}
So, long story short, I'd like to get rid of that nastiness called
edac_stub.c and confine all the EDAC drivers solely to drivers/edac/. If
we ever have to do stuff like that again, it should be notifiers we're
using and not some insanity like this one.

As this file was never added to the driver-api, the kernel-doc

The edac_core.h header contain data structures and function
definitions for the 3 parts of EDAC: MC, PCI and device.
Let's move the PCI ones to a separate header file, as part
of a header reorganization.

This was really dumb - reference counting for the main EDAC sysfs
object. While we could've simply registered it as the first thing in the
module init path and then hand it around to what needs it.
Do that and rip out all the code around it, thus simplifying the whole
handling significantly.
Move the edac_subsys node back to edac_module.c.

ACPI / EC: Fix broken 64bit big-endian users of 'global_lock'
Its a bit odd that debugfs_create_bool() takes 'u32 *' as an argument,
when all it needs is a boolean pointer.
It would be better to update this API to make it accept 'bool *'
instead, as that will make it more consistent and often more convenient.
Over that bool takes just a byte.
That required updates to all user sites as well, in the same commit
updating the API. regmap core was also using
debugfs_{read|write}_file_bool(), directly and variable types were
updated for that to be bool as well.
