[PATCH] ipmi: Fix timer race with module unload

[Manoj Iyer]

From: Jan Glauber <jglauber at cavium.com>

Please note that below oops is from an older kernel, but the same
race seems to be present in the upstream kernel too.

The following panic was encountered during removing the ipmi_ssif
module:
