So first of all, acpi_smbus_cmi_add_cap() shouldn't really use
ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT() and similar.  They belong to ACPICA and their use
should be limited to it.

I know that they are used in the other parts of the ACPI subsystem,
but they really should be replaced with the kernel's proper debug
statements in there.
