PATCH RESEND v3 1/1 ipmi: msghandler: Pass lockdep expression to RCU lists

intf->cmd_rcvrs is traversed with list_for_each_entry_rcu outside an RCU read-side critical section but under the protection of intf->cmd_rcvrs_mutex.

ipmi_interfaces is traversed using list_for_each_entry_rcu outside an RCU read-side critical section but under the protection of ipmi_interfaces_mutex.

Hence, add the corresponding lockdep expression to the list traversal primitive to silence false-positive lockdep warnings, and harden RCU lists.

Add macro for the corresponding lockdep expression to make the code clean and concise.

---
v3:
- Remove rcu_read_lock_held() from lockdep expression since it is implicitly checked.
- Remove unintended macro usage.

v2:
- Fix sparse error
CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis
