Subject: [PATCH 7/13] EDAC core fix workq timer

From: Arthur Jones <[email protected]>

Applied to linux-2.6.26-rc5-mm3

When updating the edac_mc_poll_msec module parameter from
the sysfs /sys/module/edac_core/parameters/edac_mc_poll_msec
file, we don't update the workq timers. So that, if we
move from a big poll time to a small one, the small one
won't take effect until the big one has timed out.

Here we provide a new module parameter set method
to call out to the update routine. This brings
the /sys/module/edac_core/parameters functionality
up to that provided by the /sys/drivers/system/edac/mc
sysfs module parameter files so that we can remove
them or at least link to the /sys/module files...
