[dm-devel] [multipath] hwtable update

Hi Christophe,

here's a small update for the hardware table.
I've added a new controller (IBM DS4100), which uses the same controller
than SGI TPC. For a proper support I had to relax the checks in pp_tpc
slightly.
Secondly, it sets the FAILBACK for all machines supported by pp_tpc to
-FAILBACK_IMMEDIATE, as we cannot (yet) adjust the path setting. Hence
we need to switch back to the preferred path as soon as it becomes
available again.

If I ever get my hands on the manual I'll be probably adding a hardware
handler for it. So anyone having a PDF called 'Sofware Interface
Specification' describing amongs others SCSI INQUIRY commands, please
speak up :-)

Cheers,

Hannes
