hal-0.5.8.1-ibmebus.patch: patch to support searching /sys/bus/ibmebus

Adding "FEATURE REQUEST" to summary per Irina's request.

Yes, this looks OK to add for 5.1. Adding dev_ack.

This enhancement request was evaluated by the full Red Hat Enterprise Linux team
for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux minor release.   As a result of this
evaluation, Red Hat has tentatively approved inclusion of this feature in the
next Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update minor release.   While it is a goal to
include this enhancement in the next minor release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux,
the enhancement is not yet committed for inclusion in the next minor release
pending the next phase of actual code integration and successful Red Hat and
partner testing.

Patch is in hal-0.5.8.1-20.el5.

I used JS22 Blade with RHEL5.1 Snapshot1. hal-device recognized eha ethernet
adapters. will attach hal-device output.

Following is part of hal-device to see ibmebus eha cards:

RHEL5.1 hal-device recognizes Galaxy adapter (HCA) on p5 595 machine.
See attachment of hal-device-galaxy.log

Also HTS-5.0-48 works fine to see Galaxy IB adapters:
