[PATCH] IPMI: fix startup race condition
Matt Domsch noticed a startup race with the IPMI kernel thread, it was possible (though extraordinarly unlikely) that a message could come in before the upper layer was ready to handle it. This patch splits the startup processing of an IPMI interface into two parts, one to get ready and one to actually start the processes to receive messages from the interface.
