Description of problem:
kdump misreads a root device on ia64 box. Consequently, checking root
filesystem always fails.
In mkdumprd, the way to search a root device is not good enough for ia64.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kexec-tools-1.101-83.el5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In /etc/kdump.conf, specify nowhere to copy /proc/vmcore file.
2. Start kdump service.
3. Make system panic.
  
Actual results:
kdump misreads a root device. Anyway /proc/vmcore cannot be copied.

Expected results:
kdump finds a root device correctly, and then it can check root filesystem.


Additional info:
Here's a patch to fix this problem. This patch will be good enough
for i386, ia64, and x86_64.
