[PATCH] EDAC: mc numbers refactor 1-of-2

Remove add_mc_to_global_list().  In next patch, this function will be
reimplemented with different semantics.

1 Reimplement add_mc_to_global_list() with semantics that allow the caller to
  determine the ID number for a mem_ctl_info structure.  Then modify
  edac_mc_add_mc() so that the caller specifies the ID number for the new
  mem_ctl_info structure.  Platform-specific code should be able to assign the
  ID numbers in a platform-specific manner.  For instance, on Opteron it makes
  sense to have the ID of the mem_ctl_info structure match the ID of the node
  that the memory controller belongs to.

2 Modify callers of edac_mc_add_mc() so they use the new semantics.
