ChangeSet 1.2231.1.157, 2005/03/28 20:00:05-08:00, [EMAIL PROTECTED]

        [PATCH] Fix oops when inserting ipmi_si module
        
        In one of machines in our lab, spmi->addr.register_bit_width is 0 (so 
the
        returned address is invalid).  Ignoring the check will cause inserting 
the
        module oops.
