Actually I'd rather get this straightened out sooner rather than
later.  I don't want ehca merged with the scheme it uses, so I think
libibverbs needs to be ready to do it properly too.

It's pretty trivial to update ibv_cmd_create_qp(); in fact I just did
it.  How does this patch look to you?  (driver library changes coming
shortly)

 - R.
