We have supported IB switches and routers since day 1 of OpenIB and
linux-rdma. Although not the original intent, there are still no in-tree
consumers, but there are several out of tree ones. Every time this issue
has come up in the past, it has been decided to continue to support
them. Effectively, IB routers and switches are grandfathered.

Rather than doing this, perhaps a better approach would be to supply
some skeleton drivers for IB switch and router.
