oops, sorry, I was referring to the patch that deals with
re-structuring of struct ib_wc, so...

(1) did we even got performance gains achieved using **that** patch?

(2) re this one, as I wrote in the past, I am in favor of simple
caching of struct
ib_device_attr on struct ib_device (best with pointer) and not adding
333 fields
to struct ib_device, I don't see the benefit from this patch.
