I *just* discovered that there is a GID and PKEY cache stored in the
device structure. I'm removing my CM specific caches in favor of using
these. As a side note, I've added a new call to cache.c that I'll
check in once I verify that it works.
ib_cached_gid_find(*device, *gid, *port, *index)
The call returns the port number and optionally the index. This is a
change from the call with the same name in the roland-merge branch in
that the device is input.
