It's not an OpenIB/OpenFabrics thing but it's carried forward in the
OpenSM tree.

Thanks; I missed that as I didn't look at the line numbers...

Right and it wouldn't need num_paths either (as get assumes 1) so I
don't think the changes for OSMV_QUERY_PATH_REC_BY_LIDS in both these
patches are needed.
