Aye, its effectively a NAT translation layer that strips Ethernet
headers and grafts on IPoIB headers, thus using the same wire protocol
and allowing communication from EoIB to IPoIB.

However this approach is a little dirty and has been nacked by the
netdev community so we aren't likely to see it in the mainline
kernel.. basically ever.
