I am not sure. 
To me it is unlikely, because rdma_resolve_route() for InfiniBand is not synchronous either which needs to query the SA.
But qp_mutex existed long before that which doesn't provide any performance improvements. ( by splitting as 3rd lock instead of id_lock and handler_lock) and so on.
