Due to the recent WinOF installer bug fix, a WinOF point release will be generated next week: WinOF 2.2.1

Revision: 2770

Message:
[WINOF] In CheckDriversOK() remove usage of Wsh.Sleep() as it fails in the installer environment thus causing an
installer crash; 'very' low frequency. Wait by invoking 'cmd.exe /C timeout /T 2'.
In a very small # of cases the IPoIB device IBA\IPOIB has not appeared in the Windows device database prior to installing NetworkDirect/WSD.
Waiting ensures NetworkDirect/IBAL & Winsock Direct providers install correctly.
~98% of the time, the IPoIB device has already appeared, otherwise wait a max of 30 seconds. For the waited too long condition, output a timed nastyGram popup about a possible IPoIB driver initialization failure (no errors returned) and continue.
