trydefaults sets whether the standard IPMI interface at 0xca2 and
any interfaces specified by ACPE are tried. By default, the driver
tries it, set this value to zero to turn this off.
The other try... items disable discovery by their corresponding
names. These are all enabled by default, set them to zero to disable
them. The tryplatform disables openfirmware.
The next three parameters have to do with register layout. The
registers used by the interfaces may not appear at successive
locations and they may not be in 8-bit registers. These parameters
