The above is not the latest version of it. The latest version is:
	http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg1343822.html

The definition there is:

+/*
+ * Default error mechanisms for Memory Controller errors (CE and UE)
+ */
+TRACE_EVENT(mc_event,
+
+	TP_PROTO(const unsigned int err_type,
+		 const unsigned int mc_index,
+		 const char *error_msg,
+		 const char *label,
+		 int layer0,
+		 int layer1,
+		 int layer2,
+		 unsigned long pfn,
+		 unsigned long offset,
+		 unsigned long grain,
+		 unsigned long syndrome,
+		 const char *driver_detail),
+
+	TP_ARGS(err_type, mc_index, error_msg, label, layer0, layer1, layer2,
+		pfn, offset, grain, syndrome, driver_detail),

The address is there using the edac way to represent it (page, offset, grain).

That's exactly what I said. 

See above. driver_detail is a char string, with
the driver specific stuff. The EDAC global values are represented as-is
without being converted to integers.
