2.4.21-pre6: IPMI unresolved symbols

2.4.21-pre6: IPMI unresolved symbols

[bunk]

: From: Adrian Bunk <bunk@fs.tum.de>

panic_notifier_list and panic_timeout are not EXPORT_SYMBOL'ed in 
kernel/panic.c resulting in the following unresolved symbol errors when 
building IPMI modular:

<--  snip  -->

...
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.21-pre6/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.o
depmod:         panic_notifier_list
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.21-pre6/kernel/drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_watchdog.o
depmod:         panic_notifier_list
depmod:         panic_timeout
...

<--  snip  -->
