Yes, thatâs right:
1. d0cdf9003140 is the patch I am referring to
2. EDAC for KNL platform on 4.5 will not cause any problems but will not be functional for DIMMs (only for MCDRAM)

Thanks, that is a valid point, it will be refactored in a separate patch.
However it would good to fix what we have now, so I still hope to have the patch merged anyway...
