ipmi:ssif: Add a module parm to specify that SMBus alerts don't work

IPMI updates for 4.3

Most of these have been sitting in linux-next for more than a release,
particularly
ipmi: Convert the IPMI SI ACPI handling to a platform device
which is probably the most complex patch. That is also the one that changes
drivers/acpi/acpi_pnp.c. The change in that file is only removing IPMI
from a "special
platform devices" list, since I convert it to the standard PNP
interface. I posted this
one to the ACPI list twice and got no response, and it seems to work
well in my
testing, so I'm hoping it's good.

Hidehiro Kawai posted a set of changes that improves the panic time handling
in the IPMI driver.

The rest of the changes are minor bug fixes or cleanups and some
documentation.
