[RFC PATCH 09/11] drivers/char/ipmi: convert stats to use counter_atomic

[Shuah Khan]

counter_atomic is introduced to be used when a variable is used as
a simple counter and doesn't guard object lifetimes. This clearly
differentiates atomic_t usages that guard object lifetimes.

counter_atomic variables will wrap around to 0 when it overflows and
should not be used to guard resource lifetimes, device usage and
open counts that control state changes, and pm states.

atomic_t variables used for stats are atomic counters. Overflow will
wrap around and reset the stats and no change with the conversion.

Convert them to use counter_atomic.
