So you move that code which accesses csrows up so that it has the
required information to query DIMM state/presence.

Also, I don't like that assumption.

The best would be to have a function which checks whether DIMMs are
present on the node and act accordingly. You can pull up some of the
work of caching registers which are used in debug_display_dimm_sizes*
and use that info to get the required DIMM state upfront.

Thx.
