2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Tamas Vincze <tom@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 118f3e1afd5534c15f9701f33514186cfc841a27 upstream.

EDAC MC0: INTERNAL ERROR: channel-b out of range (4 >= 4)
Kernel panic - not syncing: EDAC MC0: Uncorrected Error (XEN) Domain 0 crashed: 'noreboot' set - not rebooting.

This happens because FERR_NF_FBD bit 28 is not updated on i5000. Due to
that, both bits 28 and 29 may be equal to one, returning channel = 3. As
this value is invalid, EDAC core generates the panic.
