[POWERPC] EDAC ECC software scrubber
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Implements the per arch atomic_scrub() that EDAC uses for software
ECC scrubbing.  It reads memory and then writes back the original
value, allowing the hardware to detect and correct memory errors.
