BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2115687

SRU Justification:

[Fix]

* Support the ipmb_host.c driver on the Noble branch.

[Test Case]

* check that ipmb_host.c driver is loaded at boot time with no errors (lsmod/modinfo)
* check that the /dev/ipmi0 device file is created successfully
* Please note that this driver (like other host IPMI drivers), depends on ippmi_msghandler.c and ipmi_devint.c. They have to be loaded for ipmb_host.c to be loaded successfully
* send ipmi commands from the BF DPU to the BMC and make sure the response is as expected.

[Regression Potential]

Any of the test cases above could be impacted due to these changes.
