+Aspeed AST2500 SoC EDAC device driver
+
+The Aspeed AST2500 SoC supports DDR3 and DDR4 memory with and without ECC (error
+correction check).
+
+The memory controller supports SECDED (single bit error correction, double bit
+error detection) and single bit error auto scrubbing by reserving 8 bits for
+every 64 bit word (effectively reducing available memory to 8/9).
+
+First, ECC must be configured in u-boot. Then, this driver will expose error
+counters via the edac kernel framework.
+
+A note on memory organization in ECC mode: every 512 bytes are followed by 64
+bytes of ECC codes. The address remapping is done in hardware and is fully
+transparent to firmware and software. Because of this, ECC mode must be
+configured in u-boot as part of the memory initialization as one can not switch
+from one mode to another when executing in memory.
+
+
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: should be "aspeed,ast2500-sdram-edac"
+- reg:        sdram controller register set should be <0x1e6e0000 0x174>
+- interrupts: should be AVIC interrupt #0
+
+
+Example:
+
+	edac: sdram at 1e6e0000 {
+		compatible = "aspeed,ast2500-sdram-edac";
+		reg = <0x1e6e0000 0x174>;
+		interrupts = <0>;
+		status = "okay";
+	};
