Subject: [PATCH 4.9 33/44] ipmi:ssif: compare block number correctly for multi-part return messages

From: Kamlakant Patel <kamlakantp@...vell.com>

commit 55be8658c7e2feb11a5b5b33ee031791dbd23a69 upstream.

According to ipmi spec, block number is a number that is incremented,
starting with 0, for each new block of message data returned using the
middle transaction.

Here, the 'blocknum' is data[0] which always starts from zero(0) and
'ssif_info->multi_pos' starts from 1.
So, we need to add +1 to blocknum while comparing with multi_pos.

Fixes: 7d6380cd40f79 ("ipmi:ssif: Fix handling of multi-part return messages").

[Also added a debug log if the block numbers don't match.]
