By adding the HID to the ignore_serial_bus_ids[] list, you are
causing the ACPI code to instead instantiate a platform_device
for it.

This will successfully silence the error you are trying to silence,
but I don't think it really is what you intent / want to do ?

IMHO it would be better to add a NOT_PRESENT_ENTRY_HID() entry
to the override_status_ids[] table in drivers/acpi/x86/utils.c,
this will override the return of _STA, causing neither a
platform_device not an i2c_client to get instantiated for
the duplicate MAGN0001 device.

(please keep the comment above the entry why the entry is there)

Regards,

Hans
