Commit 93c303d2045b3 "ipmi_si: Clean up shutdown a bit" didn't
copy the behavior of the cleanup in one spot, it needed to
check for a non-NULL interface before cleaning it up.

The corresponding dmesg:

[    7.372830] IPMI System Interface driver.
[    7.373034] ipmi_si dmi-ipmi-si.0: ipmi_platform: probing via SMBIOS
[    7.373109] ipmi_si: SMBIOS: mem 0x0 regsize 1 spacing 1 irq 0

BTW, can you send me at least the IPMI portion of the output of
dmidecode for your machine?  I have seen a lot of these where the
address in the SMBIOS tables is incorrect, and I'm wondering if
it's something in the driver, or if it's really the tables that
are bad.
Handle 0x001B, DMI type 38, 18 bytes
IPMI Device Information
         Interface Type: KCS (Keyboard Control Style)
         Specification Version: 2.0
         I2C Slave Address: 0x10
         NV Storage Device: Not Present
         Base Address: 0x0000000000000000 (Memory-mapped)
         Register Spacing: Successive Byte Boundaries

Thanks a bunch.  It looks like the SMBIOS tables are wrong.  I
wonder if this is what some vendor do if there is no IPMI device
installed.  I guess I need to add a check for this.

Thanks for reporting this.  On your tested-by I'll send this up
to Linus.
