[Users] openvz kernel 2.6.32 OFED Compile error

[drolfe at intellicentre.net.au]

Hi All,

I'm trying to install the latest MLNX OFED infiniband drivers for 
centos 6. Where I'm having problems is I'm running OpenVZ kernel 
2.6.32-042stab039.11. This means that I'm installing from src with the 
mlnx_add_kernel_support.sh script which worked great for openvz2.6.18 
(el5 based) kernel but gives a compile error for 2.6.32 (el6) based. 
Just to make sure this wasn't something specific to mlnx the driver I 
downloaded the lasted OFED 1.5.3.2 src from OFA website and when 
running the install.pl the compile is breaking at the same place.

Note without the openvz kernel the driver software installs without 
error

Any help on this would be great as I don't have the programming skills 
to troubleshoot the code, see error below:
