Hal, does this fix some actual problem you are seeing?
sdp_link.c has

        if (rt->u.dst.neighbour->dev->type != ARPHRD_INFINIBAND &&
            !(rt->u.dst.neighbour->dev->flags & IFF_LOOPBACK)) {
                result = -ENETUNREACH;
                goto error;
        }

and this seems to check the device type.
