Title:
  xgene i2c slimpro driver fails to load

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Yakkety:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Zesty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The X-Gene I2C slimpro driver fails to load, which is needed for ipmitool to 
communicate with the bmc, locally.

  [Test Case]
  Ensure the slimpro driver loads and that ipmitool can communicate with the 
bmc.

  [Regression Risk]
  The slimpro driver is a standalone, xgene driver, so any issues with it will 
only affect that platform. The patches were specified by APM as needed for 
local bmc access to work. Outside of the driver causing a crash, a regression 
in the driver itself would leave us in the same state we currently are, the 
driver not loading or no access to the bmc locally.
