Yossi's intention was to save compares (gid size long) in ipoib_start_xmit().
The thought was that once the condition to start a new path query is met there 
is no need to meet it again (especially when the cost is high)
The only thing is what happens when path query fails (I explained it above) and this is 
why I think its better to remove the copy.

The new patch still fixes the basic problem that it intends to (as explained by Yossi)
