OK, but that seems irrelevant to the discussion at hand. In a case
like that I would expect you to keep track of the P_Key index to use
and not look it up again for every connection.
...in fact, why is ipoib_cm.c looking up the pkey index for every
connection? Shouldn't it use the pkey index that datagram mode
already looked up?
