Hi Doron,
In order to create the kernel git tree for OFED-1.4 we used the following procedure:

1. Clone the kernel git tree of OFED-1.3 as ofed_1_4/linux-2.6.git
2. merge 2.6.26-rc2 kernel into ofed_1_4/linux-2.6.git
3. Remove all applied in 2.6.26-rc2 patches from kernel_patches/fixes directory
4. make ofed_scripts/ofed_makedist.sh to pass for all kernels.
    This step required to remove some patches (which were broken after the merge) from the
    kernel_patches/fixes directory.
    The removed patches should be recreated for 2.6.26-rc2 kernel and then they will be added
    to the kernel git tree of OFED-1.4
5. Create backport patches

So, please update your patches to fit 2.6.26-rc2 kernel and then update corresponding backport patches.

Regards,
Vladimir
