I think this whole discussion is kind of ridiculous.  OFED is a
distribution of RDMA software, with the kernel as one of its main
upstream sources.  So you could ask what version of the kernel a given
OFED release is based on.  But "getting OFED from the upstream kernel"
is nonsense -- RHEL6 is getting RDMA drivers from the upstream kernel.

So asking what version of OFED will be in RHEL6 is a bit like asking
what version of SLES will be in RHEL6.
