ib_addr is IB specific, but making it generic only requires a fairly small 
patch.  The code originally converted a IP address to a GID, but it now converts 
an IP address to device address.  The only IB specific portion is checking that 
a given net_device has a device type of ARPHRD_INFINIBAND, so that the RDMA 
device type can be set appropriately.
