Subject: include/asm-:mips add missing edac h file
From: Doug Thompson <dougthompson@xxxxxxxxxx>

EDAC has a foundation to perform software memory scrubbing, but it requires a
per architecture (atomic_scrub) function for performing an atomic update
operation.  Under X86, this is done with a

lock:  add  [addr],0

in the file asm-x86/edac.h

This patch provides the MIPS arch with that atomic function, atomic_scrub() in

asm-mips/edac.h
