Subject: [PATCH 4.14 59/63] ipmi:pci: Blacklist a Realtek "IPMI" device

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Corey Minyard <cminyard@...sta.com>

commit bc48fa1b9d3b04106055b27078da824cd209865a upstream.

Realtek has some sort of "Virtual" IPMI device on the PCI bus as a
KCS controller, but whatever it is, it's not one.  Ignore it if seen.

[ Commit 13d0b35c (ipmi_si: Move PCI setup to another file) from Linux
  4.15-rc1 has not been back ported, so the PCI code is still in
  `drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c`, requiring to apply the commit
  manually.

  This fixes a 100 s boot delay on the HP EliteDesk 705 G4 MT with Linux
  4.14.94. ]
