It's not exactly ideal to build the skx_edac.c driver with these
stubs. Sure, it make the kernel link without errors. But now you
silently end up with a driver that doesn't really do all you want
it to do.
Perhaps this isn't a huge issue. Only "randconfig" would try to
build a kernel without ACPI. The user will find other stuff is
broken in an ACPI=n kernel long before they notice the lack of
EDAC error reporting.
So:
