[PATCH] IPMI: remove invalid acpi register spacing check

At the 2.6.12 timeframe ipmi_si_intf.c was patched to provide default
register spacings in try_init_acpi() if the register spacing was set to
zero, similar to code in other routines.

Unfortunately, another patch was simultaneously added that exits early from
try_init_acpi() if the register spacings are set to zero, circumventing the
new defaults.  This patch removes the early exit code and some incorrect
comments that aren't present in other common code snippets.
