Subject: EDAC, amd64_edac: Prevent OOPS with >16 memory controllers
commit 0c510cc83bdbaac8406f4f7caef34f4da0ba35ea upstream.
When DRAM errors occur on memory controllers after EDAC_MAX_MCS (16),
the kernel fatally dereferences unallocated structures, see splat below;
this occurs on at least NumaConnect systems.
Fix by checking if a memory controller info structure was found.
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000320
