Hi

The Linux IPMI driver complains about missing support for "clearing the recv irq bit":

[   11.531387] ipmi message handler version 39.2
[   11.553034] ipmi device interface
[   11.641272] IPMI System Interface driver.

[   12.083482] ipmi_si IPI0001:00: The BMC does not support clearing the recv irq bit, compensating, but the BMC needs to be fixed.
[   12.476372] ipmi_si IPI0001:00: IPMI kcs interface initialized

Is this something to be worried about or can it be ignored?
