Hal/Sean, I defer to you on whether you think we should add this change to ibstat.  If you all recommend against it, 
we'll advise customers to use ibv_devinfo, which is included with libibverbs and is required for iwarp user apps.  But 
it seems a minimal change to add, and previously it did include iwarp devices.
