Subject[PATCH 6/6] ipmi: Use locks on watchdog timeout set on reboot
Date
The IPMI watchdog timer clears or extends the timer on reboot/shutdown.
It was using the non-locking routine for setting the watchdog timer, but
this was causing race conditions. Instead, use the locking version to
avoid the races. It seems to work fine.
