This was an ancient hack to hand in hw errors reported through an NMI
into EDAC. And what a hack it was - it required a piece of the EDAC
functionality to be always built-in and it called into it from NMI
context.

We could've simply converted it to a notifier and put some lipstick on
the pig but the two drivers which used it are for hardware which is
pretty much obsolete now. So we can outright remove it - old hardware
can stick with old software if they really really need it.
