[PATCH v2 0/3] ipmi: discovery precedence and update core driver with dev_printk

These patches change the precedence of PNP based discovery mechanisms
and update the driver's core to use dev_printk() and its constructs.

As part of this patch series I wanted to remove the 'PFX' argument from
ipmi_of_probe()'s dev_printk constructs as I believe it produces redundant
output but I do not have a PPC platform to test against.

v2 - I dropped the contentious attempt to remove the ACPI SPMI static
table as a discovery mechanism.

Myron Stowe (3):
ipmi: Raise precedence of PNP based discovery mechanisms (ACPI, PCI)
ipmi: Convert tracking of the ACPI device pointer to a PNP device
ipmi: Update driver to use 'dev_printk()' and its constructs

Corey: If you encounter any issues applying this series let me know,
including your current basis, and I'll re-work the series.
