Here is the series to back-port the cxgb3 and iw_cxgb3 drivers to
SLES9SP3.  Sorry for the large patch count, but each patch is very
small and updates or backports a specific file or service needed by the
chelsio drivers.

It is missing one big part however: netevent notification support for
neighbour and next hop changes.  I'm pondering how to support this
outside the kernel.  I did port the netevent notifier service, but no
notifications are done as of yet.  So this is TBD.  But the drivers load
ok on SLES9SP3 and I'll be testing soon.

Michael, if you have time, please review the various additions/changes
I've made and tell me what you think.  Just trying to get some feedback
as I go along with these backports...

Thanks,

Steve.
