On Dell servers, many APCI methods of acpi_power_meter module evaluate
variables inside IPMI region, so the region handler needs to be
installed. In addition to that, the handler needs to be fully
functional, and that depends on SMI being selected.
So add a helper to let acpi_power_meter know when the handler is
installed and ready to be used.

and I'm expecting this to be routed along with patch [2/2] that has
been posted elsewhere.
Note that linux-hwmon@ isn't copied on this patch and it therefore
does not show up in hwmon patchwork. To me that indicates that the
patch should _not_ be applied through hwmon. If hwmon is supposed
to pick it up, please copy the hwmon mailing list.
