Re: [PATCH 2/4] ib_core: implement XRC RCV qp's

[Roland Dreier <rdreier-FYB4Gu1CFyUAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

So I'm looking at merging this, and I'm wondering about one thing.
Seems like it's just a mistake but I want to make sure I understand
properly:

 > @@ -1078,6 +1079,7 @@ ssize_t ib_uverbs_create_qp(struct ib_uverbs_file *file,

This looks redundant, because this function already sets create_flags to
0 a few lines later.  So I think this line is just a remnant from some
other patch.

But then ib_uverbs_create_xrc_rcv_qp() doesn't set create_flags before
the call to device->create_xrc_rcv_qp() -- which maybe is OK, since that
function is not going to look at create_flags right now, but for the
future we should probably set it to 0, right?

Also it's not 100% clear to me why the low-level driver needs a special
create_xrc_rcv_qp method, rather than having uverbs just call create_qp
with the right parameters.  But I haven't looked throught carefully to
see the differences between eg query_xrc_rcv_qp() vs query_qp() methods.

 - R.
