Use boring kzalloc() instead. Add pointers to the different allocated
members in struct edac_device_ctl_info for easier freeing later.
One of the reasons, perhaps, why it was done this way is to be able to
do a single kfree(ctl_info) without having to kfree() the other parts of
the struct too but that is not nearly a sensible reason as to why there
should be this obscure pointer alignment.
There should be no functional changes resulting from this.

Several functions are documented at edac_device.c.
As we'll be including edac_core.h at drivers-api book, move those,
in order for the kernel-doc markups be part of the API
documentation book.
As several of those kernel-doc macros are not in the right format,
fix them.

The edac_core.h header contain data structures and function
definitions for both EDAC MC and EDAC device.
Let's move the devices ones to a separate header file, as part
of a header reorganization.
