edac: add e752x parameter for sysbus_parity selection
Add a module parameter "sysbus_parity" to allow forcing system bus parity
error checking on or off. Also add support to automatically disable system
bus parity errors for processors which do not support it.
If the sysbus_parity parameter is specified, sysbus parity detection will be
forced on or off. If it is not specified, the driver will attempt to look at
the CPU identifier string and determine if the CPU supports system bus parity.
A blacklist was used instead of a whitelist so that system bus parity would
be enabled by default and to minimize the chances of breaking things for those
people already using the driver which for some reason have a processor that
does not have a valid CPU identifier string.
