      ACPI: Clarify resource conflict message · 14f03343
      Jean Delvare authored
      The message "ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver" is misleading. The
      device _may_ need an ACPI driver, if the BIOS implemented a custom
      API for the device in question (which, AFAIK, can't be checked.) If
      not, then either a generic ACPI driver may be used (for example
      "thermal"), or nothing can be done (other than a white list).
      
      I propose to reword the message to:
      
      ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use
      it instead of the native driver
      
      which I think is more correct. Comments and suggestions welcome.
      
      I also added a message warning about possible problems and system
      instability when users pass acpi_enforce_resources=lax, as suggested
      by Len.
