[PATCH] ipmi: more dell fixes
Make SMIC driver ignore EVT_AVAIL and SMS_ATN bits in flags register, as
they're used by systems management interrupts, not the host OS.
Make the OEM0 Data Available handler work for pre-IPMI 1.5 systems from Dell
too.
Without these two fixes, PowerEdge 2650 and other similar systems with SMIC
may hang a process (modprobe or anything using /dev/ipmi0).
