Cover letter [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.

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