Mine:
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/ipmi0", O_RDWR) = 3 <0.000052

Yours:
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/ipmi0", O_RDWR) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) <0.000053>

So we are back at the kernel backend of this - on your particular
hardware/firmware - not behaving correctly. This isn't one of the later
ioctls, just the basic open fails.

I re-checked my system and even a "cat /dev/ipmi0" while failing as expected 
eventually can open the device just fine (only fails later when reading)
# strace -e openat cat /dev/ipmi0 2>&1|grep ipmi0
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/ipmi0", O_RDONLY) = 3


So why isn't it "openable" in his case?
@Kernel people, what would you want Ventsislav to look out for ?
