Corey Minyard 6bba17f6bc ipmi_si: Fix crash when using hard-coded device
Backport from 41b766d661

When excuting a command like:
  modprobe ipmi_si ports=0xffc0e3 type=bt
The system would get an oops.

The trouble here is that ipmi_si_hardcode_find_bmc() is called before
ipmi_si_platform_init(), but initialization of the hard-coded device
creates an IPMI platform device, which won't be initialized yet.

The real trouble is that hard-coded devices aren't created with
any device, and the fixup is done later.  So do it right, create the
hard-coded devices as normal platform devices.

This required adding some new resource types to the IPMI platform
code for passing information required by the hard-coded device
and adding some code to remove the hard-coded platform devices
on module removal.

To enforce the "hard-coded devices passed by the user take priority
over firmware devices" rule, some special code was added to check
and see if a hard-coded device already exists.

The backport required some minor fixups and adding the device
id table that had been added in another change and was used
in this one.
