I've come around to agreeing with you. Since this is an internal function we are talking about,
we're probably better off having a separate flag which indicates whether it was invoked by
rmda_create_qp() or rdma_create_qp_expanded().  That way, we do not limit the future behavior
of ibv_create_qp_expanded() (by having the librdmarc library depend on knowledge of the internal
behavior of ibv_create_qp_expanded() ).
