Don't assume FRU MCU memory locations for the FRU data fields, or their sizes, instead read and interpret the IPMI data, as stipulated in the IPMI spec version 1.0 rev 1.2. Extract the Product Name, Product Part/Model Number, and the Product Serial Number by interpreting the IPMI data. Check the checksums of the stored IPMI data to make sure we don't read and give corrupted data back the the user. Eliminate small I2C reads, and instead read the whole Product Info Area in one go, and then extract the information we're seeking from it. Eliminates a whole function, making this file smaller. v2: Clarify changes in the commit message.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
