Public bug reported:

If the BMC / IPMI credentials being used for management of hardware were
only granted OPERATOR privileges, there is no way to inform Nova's
baremetal driver or Ironic's ipmitool driver to use this non-default
privilege level. These will issue ipmitool commands with no "-L"
parameter, resulting in privilege errors, because the default ipmitool
privlvl is ADMINISTRATOR.

This could be fixed by adding an optional field to store the privilege
level.
