Baoquan He 510084134f module-setup: Don't handle iBFT in kdump 
There are several kinds of iSCSI mode rhel support currently.
 - Pure hardware iSCSI
 - iBFT iSCSI
 - Pure software iSCSI

Except for the 1st one that firmware takes care of everything to
make it behave like a local disk, both iBFT and pure software iSCSI
mode need pass information to kdump kernel for configuring them
correctly.

Currently kdump takes iBFT mode as a software iSCSI and collects
the related information to set up software iSCSI in 2nd kernel,
though dracut can detect and collect information to set up iBFT
iSCSI of 2nd kernel. This brings up 2 problems:

1) Redundent information about the related iSCSI is collected. One
is done by kdump, the other is from dracut.

2) These 2 sessions of 2nd kernel for a certain session of 1st kernel
could contain two "ip=xxx" cmdline option. This will cause cmdline
handling error in dracut.

The 1st one is not critical while the 2nd is. In order to avoid above
2 problems, kdump need detect iBFT mode iSCSI and leave it to dracut.
This is what is done in this patch.
