You don't see in the compiles, but IIRC ipath is unusable after the
PAT rework.
We've also been ripping out the ULP side of things that would let
amso1100/ehca work in any meningful way with the kernel ULPs.
The reason I lobbied to get rid of them is specifically because they
don't work and maintaining them (ie the driver and the single-use ULP
codepath side) is a huge pain. Keeping them around and keeping them
compiling defeats the entire point. Just delete them, we don't need to
wait for 4.6.
