Ah I see.  Seems strange to use device->flags for just the checksum
offload stuff and device_cap_flags for everything else though.  I
don't see any major issues with moving device_cap_flags into struct
ib_device and not forcing a device query call, but I guess we need to
convince ourselves that the flags would never change at runtime, and
anyway that needs to be a separate change from this IPoIB stuff.

I guess that's an OFED patch?  Is there any interest in submitting it
upstream.
