This series adds IPMI driver and arch glue for OPAL-firmware-based
powernv machines. The first change exposes the firmware's IPMI API, and
the second adds an actual driver.

IPMI folks: the IPMI driver could do with a little review, as it's not a
conventional BT/KCS/SMI SI, in that the low-level send/recv interface
will handle the entire message at once.

Corey & Michael: if this is acceptable, it may be mergable as two
separate patches - one for the IPMI subsystem, one for the powernv
platform.  However, we'd need to preserve their order: patch 2/2 depends
on 1/2, which provides the structure & function definitions. This'll
break the build if only 2/2 is in the tree, and CONFIG_IPMI_POWERNV is
set.

Alternatively, they could be merged by one maintainer, pending an ack
from the other.

Comments / queries / etc welcome.

Cheers,


Jeremy
