Why don't you go ahead and paste it on the wiki then,
in whatever format you see fit?
Post a link, I'll review.

No one really maintains gen2/branches/backport in svn.
This sits there as long as it helps us test Sean Hefty's stuff,
but not really supported.

2.6.9 is actually RHEL 4 U2 - not really supported, but it seems to need
no effort to just keep it compile so we do it. 2.6.9_U3 and
2.6.9_U4 are RHEL 4 U3/U4.

Where'd you get backport-to-2.6.9? Not in OFED git surely.

Please, let's discuss code in git under kernel_patches/
