None of these will be present in 2.6.30 - so as was agreed in all
the ofa f2f meetings over the last three years - I don't see how
they why they should land in 1.5

Also, isn't the IBoE (RoEE) mode of the IB stack be designed / implemented
in a vendor independent fashion? putting into a distro IB stack a
non-reviewed driver such as a vNIC is one thing, however putting a
non-reviewed RoEE patch set to the IB stack is a totally different game,
which I think should be rejected on the spot.
