[openib-general] Async events all lumped together?

I was wondering why the mthca driver generates a single
IB_EVENT_LID_CHANGE event for all the changes (if any) contained
in a SubnSet(Portinfo) MAD. Also, the various OpenIB core agents
seem to respond to more event types than is strictly necessary:

ib_sa_event() looks like it should only need to respond to
IB_EVENT_SM_CHANGE.
ib_cache_event() looks like it should only need to respond to
IB_EVENT_PKEY_CHANGE or IB_EVENT_GID_CHANGE if there was one.
