Sometimes we can't get a valid si_sm_data, and we print an error
message accordingly. But the ipmi module seem to like retrying a lot,
in which case we flood the kernel log with a lot of messages, eg:

[46318019.164726] ipmi_si IPI0001:00: Could not set the global enables: 0xc1.
[46318020.109700] ipmi_si IPI0001:00: Could not set the global enables: 0xc1.
[46318021.158677] ipmi_si IPI0001:00: Could not set the global enables: 0xc1.
[46318022.212598] ipmi_si IPI0001:00: Could not set the global enables: 0xc1.
