I'm personally not in favor of printing some, but not all, of these
messages. That leads to questions when analyzing a dmesg log, such as
"Hmm, I see I have 64 CPUs, but only 0-3 are registered as cooling
devices. Does that mean something is wrong?"
But I would be glad to see this particular message removed completely.

If Zhang Rui does not complain you can change these:
..registered as cooling_device..
into dev_dbg() without any condition.
This isn't critical.
Or why not use the more fine grained
ACPI debug facility and change it into:
ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT((ACPI_DB_INFO "..."));
(compare with Documentation/acpi/debug.txt and other
occurences in the same file)
You have to pass:
acpi_dbg_layer=0x20000000
to see it then.
Ok.

I can't find limit_console_output(), I expect it got introduced by another one
of your patch series, not send to the acpi list?
Still shouldn't this be:
limit_console_output(true)
instead of:
!limit_console_output(false)

Sorry, I used a semi-auto method of calling get_maintainer which filled each patch
with specific Cc's. I did send the first one to everyone in hopes that that would
help find the others.
See http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125634109621411&w=4 (the argument specifies
whether to reduce the console loglevel. It's currently only used to suppress the
cpu bootup messages.)
Thanks,
Mike

I know we print way too much stuff for every processor, but again, I'd
rather see all CPUs or none. I think there's a little more value in
this one than the cooling device one (probably because I do a lot of
platform bringup), but it could certainly be made KERN_DEBUG and/or
combined with another processor discovery line.
