  ipmi:ipmb: Fix unknown command response (2021-11-25 21:17:55 -0600)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Fix issues with IPMI

Some changes that went in 5.16 that had issues.  When working on the
design a piece was redesigned and things got missed.  And the message
type was not being initialized when it was allocated, resulting in some
crashes.

In addition, the IPMI driver has had a shutdown issue where it could
still have an item in a system workqueue after it had been shutdown.
Move to a private workqueue to avoid that problem.
