ipmi: kcs_bmc: Allow clients to control KCS IRQ state

Browse source

Add a mechanism for controlling whether the client associated with a
KCS device will receive Input Buffer Full (IBF) and Output Buffer Empty
(OBE) events. This enables an abstract implementation of poll() for KCS
devices.

A wart in the implementation is that the ASPEED KCS devices don't
support an OBE interrupt for the BMC. Instead we pretend it has one by
polling the status register waiting for the Output Buffer Full (OBF) bit
to clear, and generating an event when OBE is observed.
