Ah.  Data from an offloaded connection cannot leak into the main stack
nor vice-verse.  We can take an active RDMA connection establishment as
an example if you want:  Once the message is sent to the HW to "setup a
TCP connection from addr/port a.b to addr/port c.d", then packets on
that connection (that 4-tuple) will always be delivered to the RDMA
driver, not the native stack.  If the the packet received after the
connection is setup is -not- an MPA reply (in this example), then the
connection is aborted.  Once the connection is aborted.  So no leaking
can happen.

 
And if there were a dataflow between addr/port a.b to addr/port c.d
already, it will either terminated?

Considering the following sequence:
handlers->t3c_handlers->sched()->work_queue->work_handlers()->for
example CPL_PASS_ACCEPT_REQ->pass_accept_req() - it just parses incoming
skb and sets port/addr/route and other fields to be used as a base for rdma
connection. What if it just a usual network packet from kernelspace or 
userspace with the same payload as should be sent by remote rdma system?
