static void cm_mask_compare_data(u8 *dst, const u8 *src, u8 *mask)

but I would rename it to cm_mask_copy since it doesn't really do a compare.

static int cm_compare_data(const struct ib_cm_private_data_compare *src,
		           cosnt struct ib_cm_private_data_compare *dst)
Your data type names are getting too long ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
