[ironic] Recovering IPMI-type baremetal nodes in 'error' state

Hello all,

I have a handful of baremetal nodes enrolled in Ironic that use the IPMI
hardware type, whose motherboards were recently replaced in a hardware
recall by the vendor.

After the replacement, the BMC IPMI-over-LAN feature was accidentally left
disabled on the nodes, and future attempts to control them with Ironic has
put these nodes into the ERROR provisioning state.

The IPMI-over-LAN feature on the boards has been enabled again as expected,
but is there now any easy way to get the BM nodes back out of that ERROR
state, without first deleting and re-enrolling them?
