Hey Cory,
I noticed the following patch in linux-next and tested it on our ARM
platform.
ipmi: Convert DMI handling over to a platform device
commit 0944d889a237b6107f9ceeee053fe7221cdd1089
The driver fails with a NULL pointer dereference in the ipmi_ssif driver
with the patch in place. The platform and driver boot fine with the
patch removed. Stack trace below.
