If you feel there is nothing to say in the commit message, do a git log search
for similar patches for examples of what is relevant. (There are several for
removing unused header files)

Please don't send another like this.

What was your motivation here? Did you observe a change in the driver? A
subsystem? Run a tool?

Note that acpi.h also includes acpi/acpi_bus.h, so it isn't strictly
necessary either.

Please explain your motivation and rationale. If it's worth preparing, building,
and testing, it's worth documenting.
