Actually, after approximately 6 minutes 30 seconds, the modprobe finishes
with -ENODEV and the following is spitted into dmesg:

ipmi_si: There appears to be no BMC at this location
ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:02:00.4 disabled
ipmi_si: Unable to find any System Interface(s)

Anyway I just checked that I get precisely the same behavior with plain
2.6.21-rc6, so we can rule out -mm with this issue.

It's possible that this system has some broken KCS. I will try to narrow
this down.

Anyway, the USB-related hang Helge is seeing is therefore a different
story.
