2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Scott James Remnant commit 6c89161b10f5771ee0b51ada0fce0e8835e72ade upstream The ipmi_devintf module contains the userspace interface for IPMI devices, yet will not be loaded automatically with a system interface handler driver. Add a MODULE_ALIAS for the "platform:ipmi_si" MODALIAS exported by the ipmi_si driver, so that userspace knows of the recommendation.
