Hi all,

In order to support RoCEE, a while ago I've added
a new field to umad, thus introduced an ABI change.

There already was a discussion on the linux-rdma list,
but due to the proximity of the upcoming OFED 1.5.2
release these concerns were raised again.

So my question is, other that *general* concerns about
changing ABI, is anybody aware of the *actual* problem
that will be caused by this? Any customer/3rd party
solution that would be affected by this?
