This commit only showed up in the following kernel releases:
	4.17 4.18.7 4.19

so why is this "fix" commit needed in anything older than 4.17?

That's why I did not backport it to older kernels, as I do not think it
is needed there.  Do you?

thanks,

greg k-h

Oops, you are totally right, I was still looking at the latest
mlx5_ib_create_qp_resp struct while backporting these patches :)

Sorry for that,
Alessio

Not a problem, it's good to have a second pair of eyes on these things
:)
