The RDMA CMA uses IP addresses and port numbers to create a uniform
addressing scheme across all transport types. For IB, it is necessary to
resolve IP addresses to IB GIDs. The ARP protocol is used to do this and
a netfilter rule is installed to snoop the incoming ARP replies. This
would not be necessary if ARP events were provided as in the patch.
Unified wire iSCSI adapters have the same issue as iWARP wrt to managing
IP addresses and ports.
