EDAC/{skx_common,imh}: Add EDAC driver for Intel Diamond Rapids servers
Intel Diamond Rapids CPUs include Integrated Memory and I/O Hubs (IMH).
The memory controllers within the IMHs provide memory stacks to the
processor. Create a new driver for this IMH-based memory controllers
rather than applying additional patches to the existing i10nm_edac.c
for the following reasons:
1) The memory controllers are not presented as PCI devices; instead,
the detection and all their registers have been transitioned to
MMIO-based memory spaces.
2) Validation processes are costly. Modifications to i10nm_edac would
require extensive validation checks against multiple platforms,
including Ice Lake, Sapphire Rapids, Emerald Rapids, Granite Rapids,
Sierra Forest, and Grand Ridge.
3) Future Intel CPUs will likely only need patches on top of this new
EDAC driver. Validation can be limited to Diamond Rapids servers
and future Intel CPU generations.
