Request updated/unified patch for OFED v3.2 update

[David P. Discher]

A couple notes that frustrated the hell out me this weekend:

I could not get the modules to compile in-kernel.  They have to be loadable modules.  I kept getting linking errors, to what looks like references in the linux modules.

I could not get the patch set to apply cleanly to r298482. It did apply cleanly to r298518.

Patch doesn’t create directors, so you must create these directories *before* patch:

	mkdir -p contrib/ofed/libmlx5
	mkdir -p contrib/ofed/libmlx5/config
	mkdir -p contrib/ofed/libmlx5/debian
	mkdir -p contrib/ofed/libmlx5/debian/patches
	mkdir -p contrib/ofed/libmlx5/debian/source
	mkdir -p contrib/ofed/libmlx5/scripts/expose_libmlx5_headers
	mkdir -p contrib/ofed/libmlx5/src
	mkdir -p contrib/ofed/librdmacm/include/infiniband
	mkdir -p contrib/ofed/usr.lib/libmlx5
	mkdir -p sys/modules/mlx5ib


If you get some new files in /usr/src, then you missed a directory.

The patch command line I used was :

 patch --remove-empty-files -F 30 -i /z/home/dpd/OFEDv32/patch.diff

patch.diff was created with:

cat D5790.diff.txt D5791.diff.txt D5792.diff.txt D5793.diff.txt D5794.diff.txt D5795.diff.txt D5796.diff.txt D5797.diff.txt D5798.diff.txt D5799.diff.txt > patch.diff


Everything compiled, however I messed up my test systems, so I haven’t been able to test anything yet.
