Hi Doug,

After merging the rdma tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/klnds/o2iblnd/o2iblnd.c: In function 'kiblnd_hdev_setup_mrs':

Caused by commit

I have used the rdma tree from next-20160923 for today.
As pointed out by Christoph, I should have just disabled the driver in
staging, so today I just applied the patch below.  Doug, that should
probably be applied to the rdma tree so that you don't break Linus'
tree when it gets merged.

Subject: [PATCH] starging/lustre: disable LNET infiniband support

Commit 5ef990f06bd7 ("IB/core: remove ib_get_dma_mr") broke the
lustre LNET infiniband support.  Since this is in drivers/staging,
lets just disable it for now until ti can be fixed properly.
