[patch 81/83] ACPI: delete OSI(Linux) DMI dmesg spam

From: Greg KH
Date: Thu Dec 11 2008 - 14:47:33 EST


2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Len Brown <lenb@xxxxxxxxxx>

With the 2.6.28 commit a6e0887f21bbab337ee32d9c0a84d7c0b6e9141b, we now
have fixed up the ACPI DMI code, so stop asking for people to report the
issues to the acpi developers, it is no longer needed at all.
