[PATCH 1/1] edac: i5000_edac critical fix panic out of bounds

From: dougthompson
Date: Thu Jan 14 2010 - 11:10:31 EST


From: Tamas Vincze <tom@xxxxxxxxxx>

Fix for BZ#14568

EDAC MC0: INTERNAL ERROR: channel-b out of range (4 >= 4)
Kernel panic - not syncing: EDAC MC0: Uncorrected Error (XEN) Domain 0 crashed: 'noreboot' set - not rebooting.

This happens because FERR_NF_FBD bit 28 is not updated on i5000. Due to that,
both bits 28 and 29 may be equal to one, returning channel = 3. As this
value is invalid, EDAC core generates the panic.
