I've updated the tree and it now includes 2 branches:  cxgb3 and
cxgb3_prereqs.  To see only the Chelsio T3 drivers (with needed
infiniband/core changes):

git-diff --patch-with-stat cxgb3_prereqs cxgb3

The cxgb3_prereqs branch includes anything I want in my tree for testing
the chelsio code.  Currently that includes krping and Sean's ucma code.
BTW: the IWCM core fixes are now in linus's tree so I no longer  need
them explicitly.  The cxgb3 branch includes all from the cxgb3_prereqs
branch plus all the T3 drivers under review now.

NOTE:  This git tree is backed against Linus's tree and I merged up to
his latest on 12/8.  So it's past 2.6.19 and now depends on changes that
are post 2.6.19 (the workqueue changes).
