I haven't done a detailed analysis of this, but from a cursory
look it looks structurally good.  I made a few small comments
inline.

But there is really very little here that is IPMB-specific.
You could push the few IPMB-specific formatting things up
to userland, I think.

I am wondering if you could make this into a generic I2C
slave interface.  I'm adding the I2C mailing list to the CC
and for their review.

For the I2C mailing list...

IPMB is a protocol that lets IPMI devices talk between
themselves, so it is master/slave on all device on the
IPMB.  It's basically designed so that modular parts of
the system (like a power supply) can have their own
IPMI management controller that handles things for that
device, and a management system can discover these and
use them through the main IPMI management controller.
It's used like a normal packet-oriented bus, with only
writes, no reads.

It seems to me that you could create a slave-specific
I2C device that only received messages and took
responses to those messages.  You could use the normal
I2C dev interface to to the sends and open a separate
I2C slave dev interface to do the receives.

I don't think this can happen.  Same for other things like this.

copy_from_user() should return -EFAULT on an error.

The return value from handle_request is ignored below, do
you need to return it?

EFAULT is not what you want here.  I'm not sure exactly what
to do here, but you should probably just drop the data on
the floor, maybe have a counter to count dropped packets.
