Merge tag 'edac_urgent_for_5.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ras/ras

Pull EDAC fixes from Borislav Petkov:
 "Two fixes for use-after-free and memory leaking in the EDAC core, by
  Robert Richter.

  Debug options like DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE, KASAN and DEBUG_KMEMLEAK
  unearthed issues with the lifespan of memory allocated by the EDAC
  memory controller descriptor due to misdesigned memory freeing, done
  partially by the EDAC core *and* the driver core, which is problematic
  to say the least.

  These two are minimal fixes to take care of stable - a proper rework
  is following which cleans up that mess properly"
