The IPMI driver would wake up periodically looking for events and watchdog pretimeouts. If there is nothing waiting for these events, it's really kind of pointless to be checking for them. So modify the driver so the message handler can pass down if it needs the lower layer to be waiting for these. Modify the system interface lower layer to turn off all timer and thread activity if the upper layer doesn't need anything and it is not currently handling messages. And modify the message handler to not restart the timer if its timer is not needed. The timers and kthread will still be enabled if: - the SI interface is handling a message. - a user has enabled watching for events. - the IPMI watchdog timer is in use (since it uses pretimeouts). - the message handler is waiting on a remote response. - a user has registered to receive commands. This mostly affects interfaces without interrupts. Interfaces with interrupts already don't use CPU in the system interface when the interface is idle.
