You can't be expecting me to review PPC code reliably. :-)

AFAIR from the recent discussion, Michael said that the aim is to remove
CONFIG_MV64X60 and since this driver depends on it, that would make it
obsolete too.

But I don't think we've ever "hijacked" a driver and renamed it to be
used as a driver on a different architecture - that would be just too
unorthodox.

So if I had to decide, I'd suggest you create your own armada_edac.c or
whatever that is and put your code there. Or, if you're going to support
multiple Marvell chips, then call it mv_edac.c or marvell_edac.c or so
and start building a fine driver there.

How does that sound?
