Pull IPMI updates from Corey Minyard:
 "Various small fixes for IPMI. Cleanups in the documentation and
  convertion printk() to pr_xxx() and removal of an unused module
  parameter. Some small bug fixes and enhancements.

  This also adds a post softdep from the IPMI core module to the IPMI
  device interface. Many people have complained that the device
  interface isn't automatically avaiable when IPMI is loaded. I don't
  want to make the device interface mandatory, though, plenty of people
  use IPMI internally (like with ACPI) and don't need a device interface
  or the added possible security entry. A softdep should make it work
  'out of the box' but allow people to not have it if they don't want
  it"

+Watching For Interfaces
+
+When your code comes up, the IPMI driver may or may not have detected
+if IPMI devices exist.  So you might have to defer your setup until
+the device is detected, or you might be able to do it immediately.
+To handle this, and to allow for discovery, you register an SMI
+watcher with ipmi_smi_watcher_register() to iterate over interfaces
+and tell you when they come and go.
