Subject: [PATCH] ipmi: fix hung processes in __get_guid()

The wait_event() function is used to detect command completion.
When send_guid_cmd() returns an error, smi_send() has not been
called to send data. Therefore, wait_event() should not be used
on the error path, otherwise it will cause the following warning:
