      After following the instructions to build a EL7 kernel with Lustre kernel patches described here for EL6:

      https://wiki.hpdd.intel.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=8126821

      The resulting kernel is reluctant to install cleanly:

      rpm -ivh ~build/kernel/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/kernel-3.10.0.lustre-1.x86_64.rpm 
Preparing...                          ################################# [100%]
	file /lib/firmware/emi62/bitstream.fw from install of kernel-3.10.0.lustreopa-2.x86_64 conflicts with file from package linux-firmware-20140911-0.1.git365e80c.el7.noarch

      The install can be completed using --force:

      rpm -ivh --force ~build/kernel/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64/kernel-3.10.0.lustre-1.x86_64.rpm
