Thanks!

Well, I always ended up using the driver as a built-in. I do make it module for
build test but never really used it as a module, so didn't catch this issue.

This is due to the module alias not exported by the qcom_edac driver. Below
diff allows kernel to autoload it:

diff --git a/drivers/edac/qcom_edac.c b/drivers/edac/qcom_edac.c
index f7afb5375293..13919d01c22d 100644
--- a/drivers/edac/qcom_edac.c
+++ b/drivers/edac/qcom_edac.c
@@ -419,3 +419,4 @@ module_platform_driver(qcom_llcc_edac_driver);
 
 MODULE_DESCRIPTION("QCOM EDAC driver");
 MODULE_LICENSE("GPL v2");
+MODULE_ALIAS("platform:qcom_llcc_edac");

Please test and let me know. I will add this as a new patch in next version.

Thanks,
Mani
