Sean,

Is there a conceptual/practical difference between the ib_addr and ib_cm 
modules which enforces this client registration of the cma being an addr 
consumer but not against the cm?

Does it happen to be the non existence of ib_addr id vs the existence of 
an ib_cm id? if yes, wouldn't it better/easier to solve both in the same 
method?

Or.
