{data} [intel-2015a] fixes for mpi enabled h5py (review)

this seems to have changed from 2.2 to 2.5

How did you notice this was missing? Any way to enhance the sanity check to catch this?

running

from mpi4py import MPI
import h5py

rank = MPI.COMM_WORLD.rank  # The process ID (integer 0-3 for 4-process run)

f = h5py.File('parallel_test.hdf5', 'w', driver='mpio', comm=MPI.COMM_WORLD)

f.close()

when trying to use the mpio driver without having mpi enabled it raises errors that mpi4py is not imported inside h5py.

That's a bit elaborate as a sanity check... Couldn't find an easier way myself, so be it.
