[SRU][O][PATCH 0/1] Move mlx5_ib module to linux-modules

[Impact]

Google requested the mlx5_ib driver be moved to the linux-modules
package from the linux-modules-extra package, so that it is included by
default in some of their images where the hardware support is needed.

A patchset for Noble and Jammy has already been sent to this mailing
list, this patch is for the new Oracular GCP kernel only.

[Fix]

Add drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.ko to debian.gcp/control.d/gcp.inclusion-list.

[Test Plan]

List files in the linux-modules package and verify that mlx5_ib.ko is there.

[Regression potential]

The regression potential is very low since we are provably moving a
module to its original package.
