[PATCH 8/13] EDAC core fix redundant sysfs controlls toparameters

From: dougthompson
Date: Fri Jun 27 2008 - 14:27:45 EST


From: Arthur Jones <ajones@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Applied to linux-2.6.26-rc5-mm3

/sys/devices/system/edac/mc has a few files which
are duplicated in /sys/module/edac_core/parameters.
Now that all the functionality is duplicated between
these two locations, we remove the former kobject
attributes and update the documentation.
