ipmi: fix unsigned long underflow
When I set the timeout to a specific value such as 500ms, the timeout event will not happen in time due to the overflow in function check_msg_timeout: ... ent->timeout -= timeout_period; if (ent->timeout > 0) return; ... The type of timeout_period is long, but ent->timeout is unsigned long. This patch makes the type consistent.
