Subject: [PATCH] IB/mlx4: Actually return L_Key and R_Key for fast register MRs

From: Vladimir Sokolovsky <vlad@...lanox.co.il>

Initialize the L_Key and R_Key for memory regions returned from
mlx4_ib_alloc_fast_reg_mr().  Otherwise callers just get garbage for
the memory keys and can't do anything useful with these MRs.

Hi Linus,

Please apply this for 2.6.27.  This fixes a new feature we merged during
the window but weren't able to test fully because device firmware wasn't
ready at the time.

I'm just sending this as a patch rather than a git pull request since I
think applying one patch from email is, if anything, easier than pulling
a git tree.  If you'd rather get singleton patches via git in the future
just let me know.

Thanks,
  Roland
