It *is* needed because of ib_get_err_str in mlnx_ual_osbypass.c:
UVP_PRINT_EXIT(TRACE_LEVEL_ERROR ,UVP_DBG_CQ ,
"completes with ERROR status %s\n", ib_get_err_str(status)));
(I had changed the sources file in the wrong svn branch from where I was
building. Once I went to make and test a real patch, the build failed.)
IMO, since this is just a debug print, it would be better to avoid the
dependency. The caller of poll_cq can just as easily check the error
code and print a message.
