[PATCH 11/12] sb_edac: avoid decoding the same error multiple times

From: Aristeu Rozanski
Date: Wed Oct 30 2013 - 12:28:28 EST


Whenever the extended error reporting is active, multiple MCEs will be
generated for the same event, which will lead to multiple repeated
errors to be reported. So check ADDRV and only decode the error if the
MCE address is valid.
