Hi, Add support for memory errors for the Intel E3-1200 processors.
While testing the driver, I found that doing a readq() on the memory mapped memory controller hub registers caused a hard lockup on my x86_64 system. It turns out that a read across a DW boundary is a no no here. " Software must not access B0/D0/F0 32-bit memory-mapped registers with requests that cross a DW boundary. " (http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/xeon/xeon-e3-1200-family-vol-2-datasheet.html p. 16) Thus, I've added a generic lo_hi_[read|write]_q API, to deal with this issue. I think longer term the right thing is maybe to simply add these definitions to include/asm-generic/io.h, as I didn't see any in tree users of 'io-64-nonatomic-hi-lo.h', and simply remove io-64-nonatomic-hi-lo.h and io-64-nonatomic-lo-hi.h. But I didn't want to tie that cleanup to this edac driver submission.
