Hi Doug,
Those patches were found after you asked me if I have new patches
for the rdma-rc and at that time I really didn't have.
There are three patches in this series, two from Majd and one from Noa.
The patch from Noa was the one which pushed me to send it now.
Latest changes to support LID started to use port number to determine
port type, and it is not always safe. This allows access to non-allocated
memory, despite the fact that the scope of this attack is limited by the size
of port (u8), but it is better to fix it now and don't bother ourselves
with stable@ e.t.c.
The patches from Majd are fixing one panic and one as a followup to
latest discussion with Selvin about common modify_port function.
Thanks
