After I reported this bug I found that ppc64le has a similar issue, so
I have added logic for that arch as well. Please consider the attached
patch to fix this bug I reported. I have tested this on arm64 and
ppc64le systems.

Description: load ipmi_ssif for arm64 and ipmi_powernv for ppc64le
arm64 systems use ipmi_ssif and ppc64le systems use ipmi_powernv module,
in both cases loading the default ipmi_si module would fail, and the
openipmi service would fail to start. This patch loads the correct module
for each of those archs, and the service start does not fail.
