Commit dc4e8c07e9e2 ("ACPI: APEI: explicit init of HEST and GHES in apci_init()") introduced a bug that ghes_edac_register() would be invoked before edac_init(). Because at that time, the bus "edac" hasn't been even registered, this created sysfs /devices/mc0 instead of /sys/devices/system/edac/mc/mc0 on an Ampere eMag server. The solution is to make ghes_edac a proper module.
