This removes the no longer required setting of the module owner
for the plaform structure,powernv_ipmi_driver to THIS_MODULE as
the driver core for ipmi drivers will directly find and
set the module owner for this driver.

If the OPAL call to receive the ipmi message fails, then we free up the
smi message and return. But, the driver still holds the reference to
old smi message in the 'cur_msg' which can potentially be accessed later
and freed again leading to kernel oops. To fix it up,
The kernel driver should reset the 'cur_msg' and send reply to the user
in addition to freeing the message.

If ipmi_powernv_recv(...) is called without a current message it
prints a warning and returns. However it fails to release the message
lock causing the system to dead lock during any subsequent IPMI
operations.
This error path should never normally be taken unless there are bugs
elsewhere in the system.

This change adds an initial IPMI driver for powerpc OPAL firmware. The
interface is exposed entirely through firmware: we have two functions to
send and receive IPMI messages, and an interrupt notification from the
firmware to signify that a message is available.
