AFAICT, i have 2.6.18-rc1-git6 (fetched about 1 hour ago..)

grep get_sb_pseudo include/linux/fs.h -A2
extern int get_sb_pseudo(struct file_system_type *, char *,
        struct super_operations *ops, unsigned long,
        struct vfsmount *mnt);

openib gen2 has
 grep get_sb_pseudo
../cvs/openib.gen2/upstream/gen2/trunk/src/linux-kernel/infiniband/core/uverbs_main.c
-A1
        return get_sb_pseudo(fs_type, "infinibandevent:", NULL,
                             INFINIBANDEVENTFS_MAGIC);

I copied src/linux-kernel/infiniband into the drivers/ dir like i always
did (after rm'ing the in-kernel drivers/infiniband dir).

Neither uverbs_main.c did compile (hence the trivial patchlet in this
thread) nor ipoib (complaining about xmit_lock not in netdev or the
like).

Is using the linux-kernel/infiniband driver from svn still the proper
thing to do?
Does ipoib from svn build for the current kernel?
hm.. Could it be that the current git repo is not supported but only the
last "prepatch"?
