[ofw] [PATCH 1/3] IBAL (checksum): restoring vendor_specific field

Hello Fab,
I received you proposal after the patch was implemented. During the
testing, we found a lot of additional issues and we were motivated to
finish the testing it time in order to allow our changes to be placed in
2.0.0 branch.
Each additional change (even the smallest one) requires us to check
again all the flow on : 2-3 types of Windows x 2 types of architecture
(x64, x86) x 3 types of HCAs (at least) x 3 types of option values. 
Of course, your proposal to use receive_opt field make sense and we are
totally agree with it.
So we will insert it into trunk as soon as possible and will carefully
check it on all the platforms.

Thanks,
XaleX

I guess this means that the checksum values aren't going to be encoded
in the existing receive options field?

It would be really nice to get some feedback on comments made to the
list.  Just posting patches, waiting a week or so without responding to
questions, and then checking in doesn't foster a sense of community and
cooperation.
