We would like to enable the use of siw on top of a VPN that is
constructed and managed via a tun device. That hasn't worked up
until now because ARPHRD_NONE devices (such as tun devices) have
no GID for the RDMA/core to look up.
But it turns out that the egress device has already been picked for
us. addr_handler() just has to do the right thing with it.
Tested with siw and qedr, both initiator and target.

This of course needs broader testing, but it seems to work, and it's
a little nicer than "if (dev_type == ARPHRD_NONE)".
One thing I discovered is that the NFS/RDMA server implementation
does not deal at all with more than one RDMA device on the system.
I will address that with an ib_client; SunRPC patches forthcoming.

This might work, but I'm skeptical of the conditional. There's nothing
special about iWARP that says a GID should come from the outgoing device
mac. And, other protocols without IB GID addressing won't benefit.
The GID represents the source address, so it better come from the
outgoing device or something is really wrong.
iWARP gets a conditional because iwarp always has a single GID, other
devices do not work that way.
Not sure I follow. TCP is routable so it can use multiple egress ports.
That same routing means an incoming packet bearing an appropriate local
address will be accepted on any port.
So still, I don't think this an iWARP property per se. It's coming from
the transport and its addressing. I'd hope that this can be gleaned from
something other than "it's iWARP, cma needs to do ...".
