[Or Gerlitz]

Hi Andy, 

Some clarifications/questions from whatever quick look one can have over 107 patches...

Zach Brown's "RDS/IB: print IB event strings as well as their number" - commit
1bde04a63d532c2540d6fdee0a661530a62b1686 in net-next-2.6 looks perfect to reside as a helper function in the core IB stack which can be in use by other rdma drivers (e.g ipoib, iser, srp, etc). 

Chris Mason's "rds: recycle FMRs through lockless lists added net/rds/xlist.h" - 6fa70da6081bbcf948801fd5ee0be4d222298a43 adds net/rds/xlist.h - isn't this something that better be placed under include/linux/. etc?

And last, your "RDS/IB: add _to_node() macros for numa and use {k,v}malloc_node()" patch looks interesting, 1st, it has some macros which could be placed in more general locations e.g pcidev_to_node and ibdev_to_node, your "significantly helps performance" comment is interesting, I'll send a separate note about that to the rdma mailing list.

Or.
