Public bug reported:

I'm trying to use the HP Proliant health monitoring software which is
based on IPMI in modern HP hardware.  Ubuntu detects the iLO/IPMI
hardware in the server and correctly loads the ipmi_si module, but
unfortunately, the daemon won't start without also manually modprobing
ipmi_devintf.

| $ sudo /etc/init.d/hpasmd start
|  * Starting HP Proliant Health Monitor...
| hpasmxld: get_options  failed: Illegal seek
|    ...fail!
| $ sudo modprobe ipmi_devintf
| $ sudo /etc/init.d/hpasmd start
|  * Starting HP Proliant Health Monitor...
|    ...done.
| $ 

Scott says the ipmi_devintf module should have a MODALIAS of
platform:ipmi_si as a hint to userspace to try and load the
ipmi_devintf module when it loads ipmi_si.
