ACPI / IPMI: Fix atomic context requirement of ipmi_msg_handler()

This patch fixes the issues indicated by the test results that
ipmi_msg_handler() is invoked in atomic context.

Also Tony Camuso says:

 We were getting occasional "Scheduling while atomic" call traces
 during boot on some systems. Problem was first seen on a Cisco C210
 but we were able to reproduce it on a Cisco c220m3. Setting
 CONFIG_LOCKDEP and LOCKDEP_SUPPORT to 'y' exposed a lockdep around
 tx_msg_lock in acpi_ipmi.c struct acpi_ipmi_device.

The fix implemented by this change has been tested by Tony:

 Tested the patch in a boot loop with lockdep debug enabled and never
 saw the problem in over 400 reboots.
