This was corrected with
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org/msg27221.html, which I think Doug has picked up.

Doug, Randy, Stephen how do we want to handle fixing drivers/staging/hfi1 via the staging list vs. the linux-rdma list?

The driver used to get a gift from the drivers/infiniband/hw/Kconfig, which has the required PCI dependency.

The infiniband dependency is also similarly missing and was resolved via the following temporary patch:

https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org/msg26989.html

This one also needs to be similarly added for that 0-day build issue.

I have submitted to both lists https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org/msg27299.html assuming the above one as a dependency.

I have submitted https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org/msg27298.html to both lists to add a maintainer.
