[PATCH 1/1] EDAC, sb_edac: Fix out of bound write during DIMM configuration on KNL

From: Anna Karbownik

From: akarbown <anna.karbownik@xxxxxxxxx>

In one of the previous patches we decreased NUM_CHANNELS from 8 to 4, but
it is not enough for Knights Landing which supports up to 6 channels.

This caused unattended writes to pvt->mirror_mode and pvt->tolm variables
which don't pay critical role on KNL code path, so driver was somehow functional.

The easiest way of fixing it is to change NUM_CHANNELS to 6.
An alternative solution would be to restructure KNL part of the driver to
2MC/3channel representation.

Fixes: 3286d3eb906c ("EDAC, sb_edac: Drop NUM_CHANNELS from 8 back to 4")
