rdma_ucm.ko is for usermode users, rdma_cm.ko is for kernel users, and
is required for iwarp drivers.  It seems rdma_cm.ko is not being
compiled if ADDR_TRANS is not set.

Indeed, why. :)

Perhaps this line is wrong in drivers/infiniband/core/Makefile:

infiniband-$(CONFIG_INFINIBAND_ADDR_TRANS)      := rdma_cm.o

I don't understand the rules in that Makefile.
