This patch introduces an implementation of a back-end that works with
RVT to make RoCE Verbs transport over any Ethernet network device.
Example:
After loading ib_rxe_net.ko
echo eth1 > /sys/module/ib_rxe_net/parameters/add
will create rvt0 IB device in RVT with Ethernet link layer

+module_param_call(remove, rxe_param_set_remove, NULL, NULL, 0200);
The standard way of doing this is with class and device structures and
not module_param_call...
You can look at srp for example on how to get it right...
