Just curious if you ever though of moving this into the generic
rdma layer?

I've been working on a rdma based storage driver recently, and the
various different memory registration methods are a complete pain in the
ass, and impossible to test in and ULD without havin access to all kinds
of different hardware.

And from I see we litterly dont use them much different from the generic
dma mapping API helpers (at a very high level) so it seems it should
be easy to move a slightly expanded version of your API to the core
code.
