Hi, Andrew - These patches bring the ipath driver up to date with a number of bug fixes, performance improvements, and better PowerPC support. There are a few whitespace and formatting patches in the series, but they're all self- contained. The patches have been tested internally, and shouldn't contain anything controversial. My hope is that they'll sit in -mm for a little bit, and make it into an early 2.6.18 -rc kernel. Thanks, <b
