Hi,

Yes, the linuxkpi module is now standalone and outside OFED. OFED 
mostly is related to infiniband support at the moment and only needed 
for that.

We use one or two header files from there. No C-files. Does this cause 
any problems for you?

In 10-stable it will be possibly be different, because the LinuxKPI 
resides under sys/ofed still.

This is mostly for historical reasons.
