How about the third option? :)

I've put patch 1 in a topic branch:

  https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/mpe/linux.git/log/?h=topic/opal-ipmi

And will merge that into my next, probably by tomorrow.

If you merge the topic branch and then apply patch 2/2, then it should all go
in without any hiccups.
