[Skiboot] [PATCH v3 3/3] hw/bt: Do not disable ipmi message retry during OPAL boot

[Vasant Hegde]

Currently OPAL doesn't know whether BMC is functioning or not. If BMC is
down (like BMC reboot), then we keep on retry sending message to BMC. So
in some corner cases we may hit hard lockup issue in kernel.

Ideally we should avoid using synchronous path as much as possible. But
for now commit 01f977c3 added option to disable message retry in synchronous.
But this fix is not required during boot. Hence lets disable IPMI message
retry during OPAL boot.

Fixes: 01f977c3 (hw/bt: Add backend interface to disable ipmi message)
