    i7core_edac: Add a code to probe Xeon 55xx bus · d1fd4fb6

    This code changes the detection procedure of i7core_edac. Instead of
    directly probing for MC registers, it probes for another register found
    on Nehalem. If found, it tries to pick the first MC PCI BUS. This should
    work fine with Xeon 35xx, but, on Xeon 55xx, this is at bus 254 and 255
    that are not properly detected by the non-legacy PCI methods.
    
    The new detection code scans specifically at buses 254 and 255 for the
    Xeon 55xx devices.
    
    This code has not tested yet. After working, a change at the code will
    be needed, since the i7core is not yet ready for working with 2 sets of
    MC.
