Subject: [PATCH 4/6] ipmi: Fix message handling during panics

The part of the IPMI driver that delivered panic information to the
event log and extended the watchdog timeout during a panic was not
properly handling the messages.  It used static messages to avoid
allocation, but wasn't properly waiting for these, or wasn't properly
handling the refcounts.
