[dm-devel] [PATCH] multipath-tools: Remove NetApp IBM Nseries code

[Martin George]

Remove the NetApp IBM Nseries code due to the following reasons:

1) The NetApp IBM Nseries product is obsolete now.

2) Even earlier, the NetApp IBM Nseries product line never used a
VID/PID of "IBM" & "Nseries" respectively. Instead, it always
used the same VID/PID of "NETAPP" & "LUN" itself, similar to the
ONTAP product line. So this piece of code was redundant from the
beginning itself.
