[PATCH] EDAC/edac_module: order edac_init() before ghes_edac_register() - Linux-stable-mirror

16 Nov 2022

Currently, ghes_edac_register() is called via ghes_init() from acpi_init()
at the subsys_initcall() level. However, edac_init() is also called from
the subsys_initcall(), leaving the ordering ambiguous.
If ghes_edac_register() is called first, then 'mc0' ends up at:
/sys/devices/mc0/, instead of the expected:
/sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0.
So while everything seems ok, other than the unexpected sysfs location, it
seems like 'edac_init()' should be called before any drivers start
registering. So have 'edac_init()' called earlier via arch_initcall().
However, this moves edac_pci_clear_parity_errors() up as well. Seems like
this wants to be called after pci bus scan, so keep
edac_pci_clear_parity_errors() at subsys_init(). That said, it seems like
pci bus scan happens at subsys_init() level, so really the parity clearing
should be moved later. But that can be left as a separate patch.
