If you just want the utility, get it from source:

git clone git.opebfabrics.org/~mst/mstflint.git
cd mstflint
make

and this will generate mstvpd in the current directory.
And then give it the pci device address:

./mstvpd 0000:02:00.0

I think at that date 2.6.21 wasn't yet supported, but should work now.

Whether you need the OFED kernel bits depends on what you need to do,
you certainly do not need them just to look up the vpd.
