The code started off as one thing and acquired its name but a primary
function of it now is indeed reporting rather than just correction. The
name has stuck but the functionality doesn't quite match - so the
existing menuconfig entry is actually more helpful.

Thank you for explanation and advice about EDAC meaning.

Um.
How about  we change contents with "EDAC (Error Detection And
Correction) reporting"  to understand EDAC abbreviation normally?
This is Just my thinking.
