[PATCH 2.6.23] ibmebus: Prevent bus_id collisions

[Joachim Fenkes <fenkes@de.ibm.com>]

Previously, ibmebus derived a device's bus_id from its location code. The
location code is not guaranteed to be unique, so we might get bus_id
collisions if two devices share the same location code. The OFDT full_name,
however, is unique, so we use that instead.

The patch has been tested and works fine. If you think it's too much change
for 2.6.23-rc5, please schedule for 2.6.24 instead.
