    ipmi: Fix how the lower layers are told to watch for messages · c65ea996
    Corey Minyard authored
    The IPMI driver has a mechanism to tell the lower layers it needs
    to watch for messages, commands, and watchdogs (so it doesn't
    needlessly poll).  However, it needed some extensions, it needed
    a way to tell what is being waited for so it could set the timeout
    appropriately.
    
    The update to the lower layer was also being done once a second
    at best because it was done in the main timeout handler.  However,
    if a command is sent and a response message is coming back,
    it needed to be started immediately.  So modify the code to
    update immediately if it needs to be enabled.  Disable is still
    lazy.
