Re: software iwarp stack update

I was expecting there is an ib_device->uverbs_cmd_mask
flag which siw does not set... Unfortunately, it is not
completely clear to me when a command mask bit is available
and when the OFA core strictly expects a function pointer.
Maybe there is some redundancy/inconsistency?

The uverbs_cmd_mask controls which commands userspace
can send down.  A kernel consumer does not go through the
code that checks this mask.

It does seem we are missing an IB_MANDATORY_FUNC
entry for modify_port in ib_device_check_mandatory; or on
the flip side we are missing a check of modify_port and a
-ENOSYS return... I guess modify_port does not really make
sense for iWARP so probably the second option is better.
