Darrick J. Wong fe2d5ffc74 Fix platform drivers that crash on suspend/resume
It turns out that if one registers a struct platform_device, the
platform device code expects that platform_device.device->driver points
to a struct driver inside a struct platform_driver.

This is not the case with the ipmi-si, ipmi-msghandler and ibmaem
drivers, which causes the suspend/resume hook functions to jump off into
nowhere, causing a crash.  Make this assumption hold true for these
three drivers.

Darrick J. Wong bb15e7f286 ibmaem: don't query the entire sensor repository when reading energy meter
Currently, all sensors are read when the energy meter is queried via
sysfs.  This introduces a considerable amount of delay and variation in
the sysfs reading, which is not desirable when trying to profile energy
use.  Therefore, read only the energy meters when a sysfs query comes in
for them, and don't cache the results so that we always get the latest
reading.

Darrick J. Wong 9c5413eac5 ibmaem: prevent infinite probing loop on x3650 M2 systems
On older machines, probing for a nonexistent AEM interface returned an
IPMI error; when we saw this, we'd stop probing.  On the x3650 M2 and
(presumably) later, we are returned a value indicating success and a
buffer full of garbage or zeroes.  This causes the probe function to run
in an infinite loop.  To fix this, we add one last check--if the
interface number we're looking for is higher than the number of
interfaces that AEM claims to have, stop probing.
