RE: Infiniband driver

Hi,
attached is a patch file which provides boot over ib capabilities using
Mellanox's HCA devices. It supports the following devices:
MT23108
MT25208
MT25218
MT25204

The patch is against 5.4.1. As stated before, I would like to make it
available for the public through Etherboot. Please send any comments you
may have.

Thanks
Eli
