There are some patches in the ofed release by Eli and me to support
weak ordering on DMA ("ib_core: Use weak ordering for data registered
memory"). When they got merged into OFED, I assumed they would find
their way into mainline along with most of the other patches in there.

Did they get forgotten about, or did I misunderstand the process?
