Fix a dangling pointer bug in ipmi_timeout_handler.  A list of timedout
messages is not re-initialized before reuse, causing the head of the list
to point to freed memory.

<title>[PATCH] Fix IPMI watchdog set_param_str() using kstrdup</title>

set_param_str() cannot use kstrdup() to duplicate the parameter.  That's
fine when the driver is compiled as a module but it sure is not when built
into the kernel as the kernel parameters are parsed before the kmalloc
slabs are setup.

Fix various problems pointed out by Andrew Morton and others:
  * platform_device_unregister checks for NULL, no need to check here.
  * Formatting fixes.
  * Remove big macro and convert to a function.
  * Use strcmp instead of defining a broken case-insensitive comparison,
    and make the output parameter info match the case of the input one
    (change "I/O" to "i/o").
  * Return the length instead of 0 from the hotmod parameter handler.
  * Remove some unused cruft.
  * The trydefaults parameter only has to do with scanning the "standard"
    addresses, don't check for that on ACPI.

<title>[PATCH] IPMI: Fix BT long busy</title>

<id>4d7cbac7c870ca66d8fb27d68188efbb5de2dffa</id>
<content type='text'>
The IPMI BT subdriver has been patched to survive "long busy" timeouts seen
during firmware upgrades and resets.  The patch never returns the HOSED state,
synthesizes response messages with meaningful completion codes, and recovers
gracefully when the hardware finishes the long busy.  The subdriver now issues
a "Get BT Capabilities" command and properly uses those results.  More
informative completion codes are returned on error from transaction starts;
this logic was propogated to the KCS and SMIC subdrivers.  Finally, indent and
other style quirks were normalized.
