Here's a sample of how I think the ACPI namespace device detection should
be done.  I think this is almost functionally equivalent to your "Locate
the IPMI system interface in ACPI namespace" patch.

The difference I'm aware of is that your patch doesn't call acpi_register_gsi()
for IRQs from the device _CRS, so I don't think those interrupts would work.
(I can't test this because I don't have a box that reports an IRQ in _CRS.)
PNPACPI takes care of this GSI registration for us.

Patches 3 & 4 are not really related to the main point here, but I left
them in because without 4, we'll report both SPMI and ACPI namespace
devices as being from "ACPI".

Bjorn Helgaas (5):
      PNPACPI: save struct acpi_device, not just acpi_handle
      PNP: add interface to retrieve ACPI device from a PNPACPI device
      ipmi: remove unused PCI probe code
      ipmi: refer to table as "SPMI", not "ACPI"
      ipmi: add PNP discovery (ACPI namespace via PNPACPI)
