[ewg] OFED 1.3 latest from today

[Steve Wise]

I've backported ofed-1.2.5 to rhel5.1 snap 4 (for ppc64 only).  The 
backport is basically FC6 with some header files removed because rhel5.1 
has the kernel services in it that were stubbed in the FC6 backport.

The 1.2.5 backport can be found at:

http://www.openfabrics.org/downloads/cxgb3/dev_builds/rhel5.1-backport.tgz

This tarball contains a directory that can be put in 
kernel_addons/backports/include/ and tweaked into the buildenv...

Steve.
