This patch adds a /sysfs/firmware/ibft/table binary blob which exports
the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT) structure.
What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table? It is a mechanism for the iSCSI
tools to extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information
so that they can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target. Currently
the iSCSI information is hard-coded in the initrd.
The full details of the structure are located at:
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/systems/support/system_x_pdf/ibm_iscsi_boot_firmware_table_v1.02.pdf
