Bug description:
  [Impact]
  The command "ipmitool mc info" fails to recognize the Manufacturer ID for NVIDIA BMCs, causing it to report:

  Manufacturer Name : Unknown

  [Test Case]
  On an NVIDIA system, such as a DGX-1 system, run "sudo ipmitool mc info" and look for:

  Manufacturer Name : NVIDIA Corporation

  [Regression Risk]
  Adds a static entry to a lookup table. The biggest regression risk I see is if there are BMCs out there using NVIDIA's registered ID that aren't actually NVIDIA BMCs - ipmitool would now be reporting them incorrectly.
