[PATCH 3/5] IPMI: Change link order

From: minyard
Date: Tue Oct 16 2012 - 17:54:10 EST


From: Matthew Garrett <mjg@xxxxxxxxxx>

IPMI must be initialised before ACPI in order to ensure that any IPMI
services are available before ACPI driver initialisation attempts to use
any IPMI operation regions.
