[ofw][patch][ND provider] Improving latency of ms-mpi

[Leonid Keller]

This change adds a new facility.
Tzachi and me have brought the reasons.
So it's good from engineer point view.
I don't know whether we may do it from legal one.
But we used to change Ibal API and ND sits in the same Open Source Tree
with IBAL.
Who is he maintainer of ND provider code ?
I thought it's Fab.
Fab, do you approve this API change ?
