Merge tag 'ipmi-for-4.15' of git://github.com/cminyard/linux-ipmi

Pull IPMI updates from Corey Minyard:
 "This is a fairly large rework of the IPMI code, along with a bunch of
  smaller fixes. The major changes have been in the next tree for a
  couple of months, so they should be good to do in.

   - Some users had IPMI systems where the GUID of the IPMI controller
     could change. So rescanning of the GUID was added. The naming of
     some sysfs things was dependent on the GUID, however, so this
     resulted in the sysfs interface code in IPMI changing to remove
     that dependency and name the IPMI BMCs like other sysfs devices.

   - The ipmi_si_intf.c code was fairly bloated with all the different
     discovery methods (PCI, ACPI, SMBIOS, OF, platform, module
     parameters, hot add). The structure of how the interfaces were
     added was redone to make them more modular, then the individual
     methods were pulled out into their own files"
