eSEL: Make sure PANIC logs are sent to BMC before calling assert
[ Upstream commit 033e797cb0d77b151ab6e47d8fb7666a09641107 ] eSEL logs are split into multiple smaller chunks and sent to BMC. We use ipmi_queue_msg_sync() interface for sending OPAL_ERROR_PANIC severity events to BMC. But callback handler (ipmi_cmd_done()) clears 'sync_msg' after getting response to first chunk as its not aware that we have more data to send. So in assert()/checkstop path we may endup checkstoping system before error log is sent to BMC completely. We will miss useful error log. This patch introduces new wait loop in ipmi_elog_commit(). It will wait until error log is sent to BMC. I think this is safe because even if something goes wrong (like BMC reset) we will hit timeout and eventually we will come out of this loop. Alternatively we can add additional check in ipmi_cmd_done() path. But I don't wanted to make this path aware of message type.
