Andrew, am I using the right format to send things upstream to you?
There's really a set of independent patches, so it didn't make sense
to me to batch them up in a series. OK?
Maybe the addition of the git tree (below) serves to clarify things.

BTW, all outstanding infiniband patches intended for upstream are currently
there. Here's the list:

Jack Morgenstein:
      IB/mthca: fix mthca_ah_query static rate format

Michael S. Tsirkin:
      IB/cm: drop REQ when out of memory
      IB/mthca: comment fix

Sean Hefty:
      IB/addr: gid structure alignment fix

Vu Pham:
      IB/srp: fix fmr error handling

Sure.  Although I am a little surprised to be be receiving them while
Roland is in taking-time-off-but-not-really-doing-so mode.

But whatever - I'll put them in the for-2.6.18 queue, thanks.

Well, I don't know what's up either, but Roland acked patches explicitly
so I figured that's what he wants, too.

I'm in steal-10-minutes-to-read-email-every-now-and-then-mode, so I'd
rather let someone else handle all the patch merging etc.

I'll be back for real after Ottawa I guess...
