-   ibm_version is a u16.

-   closed races between lnd_shutdown and peer creation that prevent
    lnd_shutdown from finishing.
-   fixed a couple of harmless off-by-one typos when skipping initial
    frags in io vectors.
-   added a missing check for memory allocation failure in lnet_new_rtrbuf.

-   fixed a typo.

   openibnal (bz 7217)

*  remove WIRE_ATTR from iibanl kib_md_t (it's not a wire struct)

b=6411 : enable rate-limiting of console error messages, and some console
         errors now go only to the kernel log.  Use CERROR/CWARN where
	 appropriate to allow rate-limiting of these messages.
b=1693 : add /proc/sys/portals/catastrophe entry which will report if
         that node has previously LBUGged.

   configurations to fail rather than trip a server assertion.

*  5606 fix ensures both peers agree on maximum "immediate" get.

*  ranal updates

*   Made openib not use the subnet manager to discover connection parameters

    + Openib listens on a TCP/IP port for service queries and responds with the
      service id, port GID and pkey.

    + Openib peer table entries have become (NID, IP, port) tuples, where IP
      and port connect to the peer's service query server.

    + /proc interfaces for port, listener timeout and backlog (restarts kernel
      listener on update).

    + lmc/lconf support for new openib peers, including only running acceptor
      if net == 'tcp'

    + Changed connection daemon to conduct both sides of the service query as
      well as IB connection establishment.  Spawning several since tcp/ip reads
      can block for a timeout.

    + Added a reaper thread to do connection cleanup and timeout checks (the
      single connection daemon used to do that too).

*   Removed some unused lconf default constants

*   Better openib automagic compilation check.

*   Consistent usage (flipping + optional checksum) of all openib messages
    (service query, connection requests and "normal" message flow).

*   Exhaustive openib "are-you-still-the-same-person" checks

*   Fixed bug which stopped idle persistent peers from getting removed from the
    peer table.

*   Fixed some ranal bugs which became obvious when similar problems were
    debugged in openibnal

*   better checking/error messages on OpenIB automagic

    *  OBD_FL_DEBUG_CHECK for consistent obdecho end-to-end checking

    *  struct echo_obd cleanup

    *  obdecho support for "difficult" reply testing (test_setattr)

    *  replaced cowardly eap_from_cookie() usage with EAP_FROM_COOKIE()
       which asserts it is being called correctly

    *  bracketed echo_client_iocontrol() guts with unlock/lock_kernel()
       for increased concurrency during echo ioctl execution

    *  better thread control and stats in obd.c

    *  n-threads-over-m-objects test_brw support (required for
       obdfilter-survey)

* openibnal changes

    *  re-enabled openib on 2.5/2.6 builds
       configure --with-openib=no can be used to disable openib explicitly if
       required.

    *  fixed some 64 bit casts

    *  just use kernel's page_to_phys()

* fixed CERROR format problem in libcfs/module.c
