[PATCH 2.6] ipmi: panic generator ID

[Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com>]

The IPMI specifcation says the generator ID is 0x20, but that is for
bits 7-1.  Bit 0 is set to specify it is a software event.  The
correct value is 0x41.  Without this fix, panic events written into
the System Event Log appear to come from an "unknown" generator,
rather than from the kernel.
