I understand that the AH is per device. What I don't get is why we would want
each device to perform the mapping. We don't expect the device to map GIDs to
LIDs when creating an AH. The user must have done the mapping beforehand. The
mapping does not depend on which device I'm using, it should be the same.
Basically, what I want to understand is why does this change make sense?
