[PULL][SRU Yakkety] Support IPMI system interface for Cavium ThunderX

[This is the same text as the Xenial PR, so you don't need to read it twice :)]

This is a set of cherry picks from upstream that introduces the
i2c-thunderx driver, which is required to access the IPMI system
interface (/dev/ipmi0) on Cavium ThunderX.  The series starts by
refactoring the i2c-octeon driver before introducing the new one since
they share common code. i2c-octeon is only applicable to Cavium
MIPS-based platforms, so it isn't a regression risk to Ubuntu
(-ENOPORT).

All of the changes necessary to get us in-sync with zesty were
isolated to these drivers, so I did a kitchen-sink backport. This
means it includes some low-priority changes (code cleanup/docs) but,
since this is effectively new code for us, that seemed like the
lowest-risk and most maintainable approach.

Tested on a Cavium CRB1S.
