I have applied the patches found at https://openib.org/svn/gen2/branches/backport/2.6.9_U3/ and followed the instructions from https://openib.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Installation+Cheat+Sheet

Note these instructions are for 2.6.16

After you apply
linux_idr_6554_to_2_6_13.patch

a file ./include/linux/idr.h will be created for you.

You should build with directory ./include/linux first on include list
for this to take effect.

something like 

make -C $(KSRC) SUBDIRS="$(CWD)/$(SRC)linux-kernel/infiniband" \
                LINUXINCLUDE='-I$(CWD)/include \
                -I$(CWD)/$(SRC)linux-kernel/infiniband/include \
                -Iinclude \
                $$(if $$(KBUILD_SRC),-Iinclude2 -I$$(srctree)/include)' \
