ipmi: create hardware-independent softdep for ipmi_devintf (2016-12-12 14:26:29 -0600)
---------------------------------------------------------------- Various small fixes for IPMI. Cleanups in the documentation and convertion printk() to pr_xxx() and removal of an unused module parameter. Some small bug fixes and enhancements.
This also adds a post softdep from the IPMI core module to the IPMI device interface. Many people have complained that the device interface isn't automatically avaiable when IPMI is loaded. I don't want to make the device interface mandatory, though, plenty of people use IPMI internally (like with ACPI) and don't need a device interface or the added possible security entry. A softdep should make it work "out of the box" but allow people to not have it if they don't want it.
---------------------------------------------------------------- Corey Minyard (7): ipmi: Periodically check for events, not messages ipmi_ssif: Remove an unused module parameter ipmi: Update documentation Move platform device creation earlier in the initialization ipmi_si: Clean up printks ipmi: Pick up slave address from SMBIOS on an ACPI device ipmi: Fix sequence number handling
