Mellanox OFED support

All versions of Mellanox OFED that successfully install on a Linux system should be supported by this package. Newer OFED versions are preferred.

If the Mellanox OFED is installed on a system, this package can also be built in such a way that NFS RDMA is functional and working using the Mellanox RDMA stack instead of the inbox kernel RDMA stack, which the installation of the Mellanox OFED supersedes.

The state where the Mellanox OFED is installed is detected automatically by the build scripts, and the resultant package will only work with that particular Mellanox OFED version.
