EDAC/mc: Fix grain_bits calculation
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 3724ace582d9f675134985727fd5e9811f23c059 ]

The grain in EDAC is defined as "minimum granularity for an error
report, in bytes". The following calculation of the grain_bits in
edac_mc is wrong:

	grain_bits = fls_long(e->grain) + 1;

Where grain_bits is defined as:

	grain = 1 << grain_bits

Example:

	grain = 8	# 64 bit (8 bytes)
	grain_bits = fls_long(8) + 1
	grain_bits = 4 + 1 = 5

	grain = 1 << grain_bits
	grain = 1 << 5 = 32

Replace it with the correct calculation:

	grain_bits = fls_long(e->grain - 1);

The example gives now:

	grain_bits = fls_long(8 - 1)
	grain_bits = fls_long(7)
	grain_bits = 3

	grain = 1 << 3 = 8

Also, check if the hardware reports a reasonable grain != 0 and fallback
with a warning to 1 byte granularity otherwise.
