There are 3 additional required config entries: NET, INET & 
INFINIBAND_RDMA_CM. Do you suggest to 'depned' on them or 'depned' on 
some of them and 'select' the rest?

Also, since I'm not familiar enough with 'make rndconfig', here's a 
question:
if iSER 'depends' on INET, is it possible that 'make rndconfig' will 
enable iSER without enabling INET?

Thanks
Erez
