This removes the dependency on specific Mellanox OFED libraries by
using the upstream rdma-core and linux upstream community code.

Would you mind mentioning what is the difference between "specific
Mellanox OFED libraries" and "upstream rdma-core"? If not in the
documentation, at least in mail list for interested people?

Does it make sense to put this update into release notes?

Thanks,
ferruh

 Hi Ferruh,

Both packages, rdma-core upstream &  Mellanox OFED are Linux user-

space packages :

quoted

 	1. Rdma-core is the Linux upstream user-space package.
 	2. Mellanox OFED  is the Mellanox's Linux user-space package.
 The difference is the APIs . We shall explain that difference in
the release notes .

The difference can be too much detail for release notes, I believe it
is good to mention in release notes the dependency requirement change,
as above commit log.

But this commit log can have the detail.

I will send a new PATCHv6 with an updated commit log . That contains this
explanation above. The release notes will updated by Shahaf Shuler separately.
