[ewg] [PATCH] ofed_scripts: Add location code fix for older ppc64 kernels

Kernels prior to 2.6.24 have problems with multiple devices sharing the same
location code on ppc64 systems -- only one of these devices would be usable
by ibmebus. This will be a problem on systems with multiple eHCA chips on a
single hardware location.
For older kernels, this problem can be circumvented by, prior to loading the
eHCA driver, changing the location codes of the offending devices so that
they're not the same anymore.
This patch adds an openibd patch file which, if applied, will make openibd
change the location codes of eHCA adapters with the same location code.
ofed_patch.sh is changed so that it applies that patch if, and only if, it
is run on a ppc64 architecture and the kernel version implies that the
kernel has the ibmebus bug.
