Sticking with the original isn't really the point.

The point here, is to document what Tom was talking about - some ports
can only support one RDMA READ SGL entry, even though they support
multiple RDMA WRITE SGL entries. Today the query API assumes
READ/WRITE/SEND are symmetrical.

has_rdma_read_sgl() is a good way to document that for now, and is a big
flashing marker where something might need to be fixed in the
future.

This tells everyone reading the code and the API that when working
with RDMA READ they need to be aware of this limitation.
