ok, good point.

The best solution may be to look at how it's structured at the
register level. If the PCI EDAC registers are implemented separately
from the regular PCI registers, a device tree entry would be appropriate.
If not, your idea of registering a platform_device from fsl_add_bridge
is probably more sensible.
