List of patches in OFED:
http://git.openfabrics.org/git/?p=~vlad/ofed_1_2/.git;a=history;f=kernel_patches/fixes/kernel_patches/fixes;hb=HEAD

Probably 2.6.20 material - Roland, could you please approve you got all these?
	fix_query_qp_in_reset.patch
	ib_verbs_h_missing_kref.patch
	mthca_0_fmr_page_fix.patch

	set of patches fixing FMR on non-cache-coherent.
	Patch 5 of 5 is at v3, hope it's all good now.
		mthca_1_merge_mr_fmr_on_64bit.patch
		mthca_2_fast_registration.patch
		mthca_3_alloc_consistent.patch
		mthca_4_dma_align_reserved_mtts.patch

	sean_cm_limit_mra_timeout.patch

	mthca_wrid_swap.patch - very small benefit, but very small patch either

Patches I'm less sure about, please provide feedback
	srp_1_recreate_at_reconnect.patch - this improves SRP spec
                                            compliance. Good idea?

	ib_wc_qpn_to_qp.patch - currently benefit is for IPoIB CM, but
				doing API updates early has its benefits.
				What do you think?

Need more work
	ipoib_selector_updated.patch - improves IPoIB compliance

There are 3 Sean's patches I think we need
	rdma_ucm: fix reporting events with invalid user context
	rdma_ucm: fix struct ucma_event
	rdma_cm: avoid port reuse after close
	I haven't put these into OFED yet but I think they look good.

Issues:
	Dotan reported oops with ucma at openib restart.
	Sean - any luck in reproducing this?
