You probably don't have an IPMI controller on your system. You can just remove the driver from the config. Kernel 3.15 will have the default probing removed, and you won't see these messages any more.
ahh, here it is:
0dfe6e7ed47f ipmi: Turn off default probing of interfaces
Since Arnd says it's possible to have this hardware on an ARM platform, I think backporting this fix may be appropriate.
Although, it looks like the only ARM defconfig that selects this driver is mini2440_defconfig. So I'm uncertain how it gets turned on in multi_v7_defconfig, particularly for the v3.10.y stable tree...
thx,
Jason.

Cory, all,
On our ARM boot farm, we've started seeing the following:

It appears to be unrelated to the failure this original message was about. However, the failure brought the above to our attention. :)
Is the IPMI driver used on ARM? Documentation/IPMI.txt indicates a dependency on ACPI, but that isn't reflected in the Kconfig. At any rate, it seems rather unhappy. :(
thx,
Jason.
