[PATCH] edac: avoid mce decoding crash after edac driver unloaded
From: Chen Gong
Date: Fri May 04 2012 - 21:19:56 EST
Some edac drivers register themselves as mce decoders via
notifier_chain. But in current notifier_chain implementation logic,
it doesn't accept same notifier registered twice. If so, it will be
wrong when removing the element from the list. For example, on one
SandyBridge platform, remove module sb_edac and then trigger one
error, it will hit oops because it has no mce decoder registered
but related notifier_chain still points to an invalid callback
function. Here is an example:

Oops: 0000 [#2] SMP
Only i7core_edac and sb_edac have such issues because they have more
than one memory controller which means they have to register mce
decoder many times.
