Yes it is possible.

A MR can be created with an iov_base of say 0xffffffff00000000.

Then any sge.addr entries would be the iob_base + any offset.

will do. 

So you are handling the offset patch that will make it u64 and remove 
the mod usage, correct?

I will post a new patch with just this send change.
