At the moment everything is racey when it comes to the EDAC registers -
it'd be nice to have a firmware API, so that EDAC etc. could tell the
firmware to leave those registers alone (if that's what the user wants).

On some newer Intel chips, I believe the EDAC registers are only visible
from the CPU "System Management" mode, so Linux doesn't even get a look
in.  Bah, yet more closed sourceness...

Cheers,

Tim.
