[PATCH] EDAC Coexistence with BIOS
Address the issue of EDAC/BIOS coexistence for the e752x chip-sets.
We have found a problem where the BIOS will start the system with the error
registers (dev0:fun1) hidden and assuming it has exclusive access to them.
The edac driver violates this assumption.
The workaround this patch offers is to honor the hidden-ness as an
indication that it is not safe to use those registers.
