Hi Yevgeny, 

I didn't see any posting of patch/es to netdev and there's nothing new in Linus tree from you since May13, the day you made this comment. 

Are you expecting to push the bonding related fix for 2.6.36?

Can you comment here? I see now that more mlx4_en patches were  added to ofed since last
month, so the delta with upstream becomes bigger every week or so.

Also, can you spare few seconds/minutes to have your patches contain change-log? some
of the mlx4_en ones don't have that, which makes it much harder to understand what they
are all about.
