It seems you have a very short memory. We had a similar discussion about that a while ago:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/8/440

See my comments at:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/9/101
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/9/267

As it was explained there, those debug messages provide a map between the legacy per-csrow
data, used by the old API and the dimm_info representation. For a per-csrow memory controller,
the map is trivial, as the memory location will match the csrow/channel information, but
for modern memory controllers, the map info is not trivial and it helps to check what it is
expected to be found when retrieving information via the legacy EDAC API.

For example, this is the mapping used by the second memory controller of the SB machine
I'm using on my tests:

[52803.640043] EDAC DEBUG: sbridge_probe: Registering MC#1 (2 of 2)
...
[52803.640062] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc(): allocating 7196 bytes for mci data (12 dimms, 12 csrows/channels)
[52803.640070] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: initializing 12 dimms
[52803.640072] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 0: dimm0 (0:0:0): row 0, chan 0
[52803.640074] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 1: dimm1 (0:1:0): row 0, chan 1
[52803.640077] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 2: dimm2 (0:2:0): row 0, chan 2
[52803.640080] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 3: dimm3 (1:0:0): row 0, chan 3
[52803.640083] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 4: dimm4 (1:1:0): row 1, chan 0
[52803.640086] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 5: dimm5 (1:2:0): row 1, chan 1
[52803.640089] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 6: dimm6 (2:0:0): row 1, chan 2
[52803.640092] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 7: dimm7 (2:1:0): row 1, chan 3
[52803.640095] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 8: dimm8 (2:2:0): row 2, chan 0
[52803.640098] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 9: dimm9 (3:0:0): row 2, chan 1
[52803.640101] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 10: dimm10 (3:1:0): row 2, chan 2
[52803.640104] EDAC DEBUG: edac_mc_alloc: edac_mc_alloc: 11: dimm11 (3:2:0): row 2, chan 3

With the above info, it is clear that the DIMM located at mc#1, channel#3 slot#2 is
called "dimm11" at the new API, and corresponds to "csrow 2, channel 3" for a legacy
EDAC API call.

Regards,
Mauro
