There is no current plan to work on this as far as I know.

I'm not sure whether this would be the way to go or whether separate
OpenSM's (one per subnet) is the way to go. I may be wrong but I think
the latter approach might work now (using different HCA ports and
ensuring the two subnets were not interconnected (by switches)).
