FWIW I implemented FR support so I can run nvme over fabrics in the lack
of RDMA devices,

can be found in:
git-9UaJU3cA/F/QT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org:sagigrimberg/linux.git rxe-fr.1

With this I could run nvmf and iser on two VMs on my laptop.

Note that fenced local invalidation (strong fence after rdma read)
is not implemented yet.
