[ofa-general] ***SPAM*** Interrupt RDMA Read

[AJ Guillon]

Hrrrm. That's really too bad because I would like to use RDMA to steal  
work from other nodes along with dependent memory. If I'm loading  
memory for a task on one node, and another node steals the task, the  
node from which the task was stolen should stop fetching memory  
required for the now stolen task. A more complex scheduler might be  
able to deal with this but maybe not optimally.

Suggestions for workarounds?
