[ewg] [PATCH] IB/qib: latest QIB driver fixes

[Betsy Zeller]

Or - the agreement in Sonoma was that anything submitted to OFED should
also be in the process of going into the kernel. Because Roland can't
always respond in the time frame required to match the OFED schedule, we
explicitly said it didn't have to be accepted. If it turns out that
there is some major issue with the change in question ( which has been
submitted upstream), we'll respond to that. But I also don't want to
either hold up the release, or redo an entire set of patches because of
this one (relatively small) change.
