Hi!
Now that  2.6.18 (with an additional patch) I looked at backporting bugfixes to
older kernels.  The main problem I see is that the neighbour destructor
interface change is not in 2.6.16, so IPoIB crashes randomly.

So approaches are
- Try to push the change into 2.6.16 by netdev
- Use the all-neighbour list as done by ofed
- Abandon the whole project

Ideas?
