No - I think Rolan is doing the right thing with a seperate patch.
I ran into the same issue since I'm still poking at 2.6.11.

By keeping "backport" patches seperate distro's will have an
easier time figuring out which backport cruft they will
need for their release. And Roland won't have to remember to
clean it out later and won't cause pain for distro's when they
grab a new version of openib but still shipping the same base release.
