Merge ipmi fixes from Corey Minyard:
"Some minor fixes I had queued up. The last one came in recently
(patch 4) and it and patch 2 are candidates for stable-kernel."
* emailed patches from Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com>:
ipmi: ipmi_devintf: compat_ioctl method fails to take ipmi_mutex
ipmi: Improve error messages on failed irq enable
drivers/char/ipmi: memcpy, need additional 2 bytes to avoid memory overflow
drivers: char: ipmi: Replaced kmalloc and strcpy with kstrdup
When a 32 bit version of ipmitool is used on a 64 bit kernel, the
ipmi_devintf code fails to correctly acquire ipmi_mutex. This results in
incomplete data being retrieved in some cases, or other possible failures.
Add a wrapper around compat_ipmi_ioctl() to take ipmi_mutex to fix this.

Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo:
"Three more workqueue regression fixes.
- Fix unbalanced unlock in trylock failure path of manage_workers().
This shouldn't happen often in the wild but is possible.
- While making schedule_work() and friends inline, they become
unavailable to !GPL modules. Allow !GPL modules to access basic
stuff - system_wq and queue_*work_on() - so that schedule_work()
and friends can be used.
- During boot, the unbound NUMA support code allocates a cpumask for
each possible node using alloc_cpumask_var_node(), which ends up
trying to allocate node-specific memory even for offline nodes
triggering BUG in the memory alloc code. Use NUMA_NO_NODE for
offline nodes."

The original commit has several problems:
1) Doesn't work with 64-bit kernels.
2) Calls TLBMISS_HANDLER_SETUP() before the code is generated.
3) Calls TLBMISS_HANDLER_SETUP() twice in per_cpu_trap_init() when
only one call is needed.

The file permissions of cpufreq per-cpu sysfs files are not preserved
across suspend/resume because we internally go through the CPU
Hotplug path which reinitializes the file permissions on CPU online.
But the user is not supposed to know that we are using CPU hotplug
internally within suspend/resume (IOW, the kernel should not silently
wreck the user-set file permissions across a suspend cycle).
Therefore, we need to preserve the file permissions as they are
across suspend/resume.
The simplest way to achieve that is to just not touch the sysfs files
at all - ie., just ignore the CPU hotplug notifications in the
suspend/resume path (_FROZEN) in the cpufreq hotplug callback.

Each link-up will allocate a new NTB receive buffer when the NTB
