Very puzzling. I'm not telling to you, but asking from you to provide maintainable code which will be read more than once. Right now, you blindly copy-pasted hardcoded values in three different places (2 kernel and 1 rdma-core). Feel free to ask your colleagues (Faisal L. and Shiraz S.) if they interested in maintainable driver code or they prefer your prone to errors copy-paste technique. > I already made my case on this.
