  char: ipmi: convert to use i2c_new_client_device() (2020-05-14 15:37:31 -0500)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Convert i2c_new_device() to i2c_new_client_device()

Wolfram Sang has asked to have this included in 5.7 so the deprecated
API can be removed next release.  There should be no functional
difference.

I think that entire this section of code can be removed; it is leftover
from other things that have since changed, but this is the safer thing
to do for now.  The full removal can happen next release.

Thanks,

-corey
