Subject[PATCH 2.6.32 22/42] ipmi: move timer init to before irq is setup
2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jan Stancek <jstancek@redhat.com>

commit 27f972d3e00b50639deb4cc1392afaeb08d3cecc upstream.

We encountered a panic on boot in ipmi_si on a dell per320 due to an
uninitialized timer as follows.

static int smi_start_processing(void *send_info,
ipmi_smi_t intf)
{
/* Try to claim any interrupts. */
if (new_smi->irq_setup)
new_smi->irq_setup(new_smi);

--> IRQ arrives here and irq handler tries to modify uninitialized timer

which triggers BUG_ON(!timer->function) in __mod_timer().

Call Trace:

/* Set up the timer that drives the interface. */
setup_timer(&new_smi->si_timer, smi_timeout, (long)new_smi);

The following patch fixes the problem.
