During\nthe reloading of i10nm_edac, the count was incremented by the actual number\nof ADXL components again, resulting in a count that was double the real\nnumber of ADXL components. This led to an out-of-bounds reference to the\nADXL component array, causing the general protection fault above.\n\nFix this issue by resetting the 'adxl_component_count' in adxl_put(),\nwhich is
