ipmi: Remove ACPI SPMI probing from the system interface driver
The IPMI spec states:
The purpose of the SPMI Table is to provide a mechanism that can
be used by the OSPM (an ACPI term for “OS Operating System-directed
configuration and Power Management” essentially meaning an ACPI-aware
OS or OS loader) very early in the boot process, e.g., before the
ability to execute ACPI control methods in the OS is available.
When we are probing IPMI in Linux, ACPI control methods are available,
so we shouldn't be probing using SPMI. It could cause some confusion
during the probing process.
