Running dracut when the root device is not known to zdev (for example
because it is located on a virtio block device) will cause the zdev
dracut module to incorrectly return an error in the installkernel()
function. As a result dracut aborts with an error.
Fix this by ensuring that the non-zero exit code resulting from lszdev
not being able to determine the root device is not passed on to the
calling function. Also remove unnecessary error output in this case
by leaving the install() function early when the root device is not
known to zdev.

When a persistent device configuration is changed, chzdev tries to
find out if it needs to perform additional steps to make this change
persistent. If this check fails, for example because the root device
is located on a RAM-disk, or on a device type not managed by chzdev,
the tool reports an error and exits with non-zero exit code:
chzdev: Could not determine device that provides /
or
chzdev: Could not determine device that provides loop0
This behavior unnecessarily restricts chzdev from being used in
scripted environments like an installation initial RAM-disk.
Fix this by removing the non-zero exit code and moving the message to
verbose output mode only.

The zdev tools use a hard-coded path to locate the vmcp binary. Since
this path may differ between distributions, the vmcp binary may not be
successfully located in all cases. Fix this by using the BINDIR macro
to determine the correct path. This macro is also used during
installation of the vmcp binary itself.

This patch adds support for the qeth attributes that are used to
configure VNIC Characteristics.
VNIC Characteristics and BridgePort are mutually exclusive. Thus, this
patch also adds a check function for conflicting settings to the qeth
code. Also, the output when VNIC Characteristics is active is added to
the BridgePort attribute descriptions.

Currently, the qeth attributes that are used to configure IPv6 NDP proxy
are described as ARP proxy attributes. This patch changes the titles and
descriptions from ARP to NDP.

During processing, the zdev-provided dracut module creates a temporary
file using the mktemp tool. Due to a missing path specification
in the filename template, mktemp tries to create the temporary file
in the current working directory which fails if that directory is not
writable:
# cd /sys
# dracut -Nf
mktemp: failed to create file via template 'dracut-zdev.XXXX': No such
file or directory
chzdev: Could not write to file : No such file or directory
sed: can't read : No such file or directory
chzdev: Could not open file : No such file or directory
Fix this by specifying option --tmpdir when calling mktemp.
