After Sagi's work, and my patchset, all ULPs will talk about local
buffers in only two ways:
- struct ib_sge w/ local_dma_lkey
- struct scatterlist with memory registration to a simple ib_sge.
(only done for iWarp RDMA READ? Maybe iSER DIX as well?)
Efforts to unify them have not been successful for fairly reasonable
reasons :)
