Apart from the suggested addition of iscsi_ibft, IMHO there is some code required to actually use that information.
I humbly offer the attached patch to use the information provided by the ibft to set up the iSCSI interface.

It is not perfect, though, because if /sys/firmware/ibft/ethernet0/dhcp is not "0.0.0.0", dhclient3 would need to be started as well so the lease would be refreshed.

Adding iscsi_ibft and this patch caused my BX924 blade server to boot Ubuntu Server 12.04.
