Hi Andrew,
I'd like to get this into 2.6.13 if possible. If it's too late, it's
not the end of the world -- we can wait for 2.6.13.1. But it's a
tiny, obvious patch that fixes a crash that at least one person
actually hit running a normal application:

Thanks,
Roland
Fix a use-after-free bug in userspace verbs cleanup: we can't touch
mr->device after we free mr by calling ib_dereg_mr().
