I haven't really thought about it much.  My comment wasn't that I
thought it should be implemented, just that my quick grep of init_net in
the drivers/infiniband directory showed me that the srpt driver doesn't
distinguish any namespaces (while the isert driver does), so I suspect
adding rdmacm support will add a new init_net usage.
