RE: [PATCH 00/10] IPoIB locking fixes and a couple minor other patches

Hi Roland, Doug,

I've looked into ipoib patch set (earlier posted one), also ran it on 3.17.
I second it because ipoib locking fixes really straighten out multicast 
initialization flow, and dedicated workqueue per interface is a great 
improvement for overall ipoib stability and scalability.

Thanks,
Alex Estrin.
