I'm not familiar with this part too :-P but yes, it looks like an ulp
to support NFS.

Actually I'm thinking about Doug's idea to use rdma_transport_is_XX()
instead of the current basic helper, thus may be use rdma_transport_is_iwarp()
in here could be better, since it's actually a feature of iwarp tech
that RDMA Read only support one scatter-gather entry.

But I need more investigation on that idea, there are some part
especially inside device driver I'm not very clear, things could be more
easier if the semantic there is compatible with Doug's proposal ;-)
