Sorry, I've kind of lost the plot here with so many versions of the
patches flying around.  In any case this is not something I am going
to pick up for 2.6.25.  I don't have any control over OFED or distros,
although I would probably hold off on adding a feature at this late
stage of the release process; but the OFED maintainers don't seem to
be as conservative as I am.
