The error type clearly describes the error. It makes sense to keep it
in struct edac_raw_error_desc as the function interface of
edac_raw_mc_handle_error() becomes easier. There is no reason to have
a function argument for the type while all other error data is in
edac_raw_error_desc.

This change might look trivial, but this series contains many small
changes like this and in the end there is a reasonable change of the
function that describes it much better:

void edac_raw_mc_handle_error(struct edac_raw_error_desc *e,
struct dimm_info *dimm);

... that reads as handle error described in e that affects this dimm.
