[PATCH 1/2] edac: Fix core support for MC's that see DIMMS instead of ranks

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab]

The edac core were written with the idea that memory controllers
are able to directly access csrows, and that the channels are
used inside a csrows select.

This is not true for FB-DIMM and RAMBUS memory controllers.

Also, some recent advanced memory controllers don't present a per-csrows
view. Instead, they view memories as DIMM's, instead of ranks, accessed
via csrow/channel.

So, change the allocation and error report routines to allow
them to work with all types of architectures.

This allowed to remove several hacks on FB-DIMM and RAMBUS
memory controllers.

Compile-tested all platforms (x86_64, i386, tile and several ppc subarchs).

Also, several tests were done on different platforms using different
x86 drivers.

TODO: a multi-rank DIMM's are currently represented by multiple DIMM
entries at struct dimm_info. That means that changing a label for one
rank won't change the same label for the other ranks at the same dimm.
Such bug is there since the beginning of the EDAC, so it is not a big
deal. However, on several drivers, it is possible to fix this issue, but
it should be a per-driver fix, as the csrow => DIMM arrangement may not
be equal for all. So, don't try to fix it here yet.

PS.: I tried to make this patch as short as possible, preceding it with
several other patches that simplified the logic here. Yet, as the
internal API changes, all drivers need changes. The changes are
generally bigger on the drivers for FB-DIMM's.
