I've only given this a high level review at this point, and while the
patch looks okay on first pass, is there a way to move some of this
functionality to either the rdma_cm or iw_cm? I don't like the idea of
every iwarp driver having to implement address/listen list maintenance.
I may have some ideas after re-examining it.

There are a couple of areas that I made a note to look at in more detail
(because I didn't understand everything that was happening), but I did
have one minor nit - most uses of list_del_init can just be list_del.
