None outside of netdev.  Really, if you get rdma patches include
linux-rdma.  Or at least linux-kernel where I will usually catch
this sort of stuff.  netdev is too high traffic and too far away
from my area of work to watch it.

But for example when I wrote my first RDMA ULP I did subsribe
to linux-rdma, started extensive discussions and fixed up lots
of core code.  There is no excuse for other people to not even
try.
