ipmi: msghandler: Suppress suspicious RCU usage warning 

while running ipmi, ipmi_smi_watcher_register() caused
a suspicious RCU usage warning.

It is safe because smi_watchers_mutex is locked and srcu_read_lock
has been used, so simply pass lockdep_is_held() to the
list_for_each_entry_rcu() to suppress this warning.
