[openib-general] rdma/ib_verbs.h

[Suresh Shelvapille]

I am not sure when I SVNed but, I have the same files under both include/
and include/rdma in my copy of the Infiniband tree!!

So, there should not be any header files under 'include', but they should
all be under include/rdma? 

Please clarify...thanks,
Suri
