If this patch fixes a problem which also exists in the mainline kernel, 
it has to be accepted upstream (to Roland's tree) before submission to 
the ewg list. If its not relevant to the mainline code, but rather a 
result of a problem in a patch that exists only in ofed, the correct way 
to go would be to fix the patch, send it to the general list for review 
towards upstream acceptance and then  just pull it into ofed.

Other then that, this change-log comment is totally mysterious and it 
requires a detailed read of the patch to know what is the problem and 
what is the fix.
