[openib-general] [PATCH] Build RPM packages cleanly

[Bryan O'Sullivan]

This patch makes it next to trivial to build RPM packages of OpenIB on
reasonably recent RPM-based distributions (e.g. Fedora, SuSE).

The patch has a few major components:

      * Cleanups of RPM spec files that either never built or have
        bit-rotted since they were written.
      * Cleanups of autotools scripts so that they work properly with
        the spec files in all cases.
      * A spec file for OpenSM, which was the only major component of
        OpenIB not packages.
      * A spec file for the kernel modules, to make it possible to run
        the latest, greatest OpenIB kernel components on unpatched
        kernels.  This has been tested with pristine Fedora kernels.
      * A shell script that automates the entire RPM build process, so
        you don't need any special smarts to do a build.

I think that the last three items above are pretty significant steps in
making OpenIB more approachable to users who aren't necessarily
bleeding-edge hackers.

I have tested the RPMs that this stuff builds on Fedora Core 3 and 4,
and SuSE 9.3.  Both i386 and x86_64 RPMs build happily, and on x86_64
machines, the two arches coexist without any conflicts or problems.

If people are interested, I can make yum repositories of the relevant
built RPMs available for recent Fedora and SuSE releases.
