[PATCH linux dev-4.7 7/8] ipmi: maintain a request expiry list

Regarding the response expiration handling, the IPMI spec says :

   The BMC must not return a given response once the corresponding
   Request-to-Response interval has passed. The BMC can ensure this
   by maintaining its own internal list of outstanding requests through
   the interface. The BMC could age and expire the entries in the list
   by expiring the entries at an interval that is somewhat shorter than
   the specified Request-to-Response interval....

To handle such case, we maintain list of received requests using the
seq number of the BT message to identify them. The list is updated
each time a request is received and a response is sent. The expiration
of the reponses is handled at each updates but also with a timer.
