Yeah, that was sort of a short-sighted updated. That probably should 
have been something configurable:

https://gerrit.openbmc-project.xyz/c/openbmc/phosphor-power/+/43018/8/phosphor-power-supply/power_supply.cpp#30


That is used to get the power supply information off of D-Bus, hopefully 
populated by the entity-manager service.

This should *NOT* be IBM specific, but I had some kind of blinders on 
when I wrote this.
