ghes_edac_init() is too late to set this module flag ghes_edac.force_load.
Also, other edac drivers should not be able to control this flag.

Move this flag to setup parameter in ghes.

So there already is ghes.disable which is using the module param thing.
Why don't you do that too?

"module" - singular.

Why all that?

Isn't specifying

ghes.edac_force_load

on the kernel command line enough? I.e., you don't need to parse the
passed in option - just the presence of the parameter is enough.

... and this hunk look unrelated to what this patch is doing. What are

Ok, I will use module parameter ghes.edac_force_load.

I tried to keep the previous same logic.
