TBH I'm not sure this driver is even worth any effort besides simply
deleting it. I see one commit which reads like someone was really using
it:

ce395088832b ("cpc925_edac: Support single-processor configurations")

but that one is from 2011 and since then it has received only API
modifications/cleanups.

But if I delete it, someone might crawl out of the woodwork and say it
is still used...
