This raises a question to this scenario:
  1) Commercial (binary) applications needs to support many
      versions of OFED (ibverbs and rdmacm).
  2)  ABI ibverbs 1.2 is released.

Question:
  What ibverbs ABI context will rdmacm ABI RDMACM_1.0 give
  access to?

As an application developer I would very much like that it would
always give ibverbs 1.1. And for RDMACM_1.1 I would like to have
the ability to specify what version of ibverbs I want my context
in. I know it is not interesting to work with compatibility with old
stuff. But it is very useful for us.
