ipmi: Remove ACPI SPMI probing from the SSIF (I2C) driver
The IPMI spec states: The purpose of the SPMI Table is to provide a mechanism that can be used by the OSPM (an ACPI term for “OS Operating System-directed configuration and Power Management” essentially meaning an ACPI-aware OS or OS loader) very early in the boot process, e.g., before the ability to execute ACPI control methods in the OS is available. When we are probing IPMI in Linux, ACPI control methods are available, so we shouldn't be probing using SPMI. It could cause some confusion during the probing process.
