It may be that the CMA can simply look in its local device list for an ib_device 
that has a given MAC address.

I don't know the detail of how iWarp will work with this.  Will iWarp need a 
call similar to ib_translate_addr() to translate an IP address into a MAC 
address?  Are the MAC addresses stored with the ib_device somehow?
