Indeed, seems sbitmap can be reused.

But tags is a part of IBTRS, and is not related to block device at all.  One
IBTRS connection (session) handles many block devices (or any IO producers).
With a tag you get a free slot of a buffer where you can read/write, so once
you've allocated a tag you won't sleep on IO path inside a library.  Also tag
helps a lot on IO fail-over to another connection (multipath implementation,
which is also a part of the transport library, not a block device), where you
simply reuse the same buffer slot (with a tag in your hands) forwarding IO to
another RDMA connection.
