Well, our nightly tests happen to load/unload modules so it is a show-stopper
for us. There's still time till OFED 1.2, let's do it right.

What I consider doing is creating a branch in the ofed git repository
and adding your patches there. This would make it easy for people to
test them without making nightly crash.
