    ipmi: Don't use BMC product/dev ids in the BMC name · 68e7e50f
    Corey Minyard authored
    There are a lot of bad things that a set of BMCs could do that
    would really confuse the IPMI driver; it's possible for BMCs with
    different GUIDs to have the same product/devid (though that's
    not technically legal), which would result in platform device
    namespace collisions.  Fixing it would involve either using
    the GUID in the BMC name, which resulted in huge names, or
    just using an ida for numbering the BMCs.  The latter approach
    was chosen to avoid the huge names.
