Hmm. This is a little odd, but I have an idea of what is going on. The driver was changed to scan the settings of the global events, since they can be changed dynamically if the BMC is reset or by other software doing bad things. That is the code that is giving the error here. The question is: why is it giving that error?
Can you set the module parameter /sys/module/ipmi_si_intf/parameters/kcs_debug to 2 and then send me the output from the kernel messages?
