Just to clarify, when I by OFED-1.2, I meant the next release in the 1.2 series of OFED i.e<BR>
OFED-1.2.1 and ultimately for OFED-1.3 down the line. Is there any other<BR>
branch designated for that ?<BR>
<BR>
And I hope there is no objection for inclusion of these patches in OFED-1.2.c<BR>
branch.<BR>
<BR>
