In Bug #1515872 we pulled IBMVSCSI out as a module. Ensure this is commonised to powerpc, and ensure that this and ibmveth are both in linux-image and both packaged in udebs.

Confirmed that the new linux-image gets a working initrd and boots, even without -extra installed:

adconrad@kernel-test:~$ dpkg -l linux-image-extra\*
dpkg-query: no packages found matching linux-image-extra*
adconrad@kernel-test:~$ uname -a
