ipoib_get_net_dev_by_params compares incoming gid with local_gid

Sorry, NAK, the incoming GID has to exactly match what is in IPoIB
LLADDR, you can't do this or it breaks how the virtualization stuff is
supposed to work with gid aliases.
I'm skeptical about the other ipoib patch as well since ipoib should
be dealing natively with 32 bit lids, I think you need to fix the path
record stuff too instead of opening coding that in ipoib.
Thanks for the clarification. Will attempt to keep the incoming GID
consistent with the GID assigned to the IPoIB interface.
Regarding your comments on path records, we are looking into supporting
32 bit LIDs in the path record response.
Will post the revised patches.
