git pull request for IPMI for 4.4

Well, I missed the merge window because I wasn't paying close enough
attention.

These changes are small and one fixes a moderately significant bug. 
They have
been in linux-next for a while without issue.

The following changes since commit 8005c49d9aea74d382f474ce11afbbc7d7130bec:

  ipmi watchdog : add panic_wdt_timeout parameter (2015-11-16 06:28:43
-0600)

----------------------------------------------------------------
ome fixes for small IPMI problems.

The most significant is that the driver wasn't starting the timer
for some messages, which would result in problems if that message
failed for some reason.

The others are small optimizations or making things a little neater.
