4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Corey Minyard <cminyard@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 174134ac760275457bb0d1560a0dbe6cf8a12ad6 upstream.
Cleanup of platform devices created by the IPMI driver was not
being done correctly and could result in a memory leak. So
create a local boolean to know how to clean up those platform
devices.
