Provide a better infrastructure for printk's inside the driver:
        - use edac_dbg() for debug messages;
        - standardize the usage of pr_info();
        - provide warning about the risk of relying on this
          driver.

While here, changes the size of a fake memory to 1 page. This is
as good or as bad as 1000 pages, but it is easier for userspace to
detect, as I don't expect that any machine implementing GHES would
provide just 1 page available ;)
