I'm starting work on the RMPP implementation in the MAD code. If anyone has any ideas/preferences on the implementation, please let me know.

For the send side, there are a couple of ways to perform the segmentation:

1. Issue one send at a time. Additional sends are not transfered until the first send completes.
2. Issue multiple sends using 2 data segments per request. This requires allocating and mapping space (36 bytes) for copying the MAD common and RMPP headers.
3. Issue multiple sends using 3 data segments per request. This is the same as #2, but only copes the RMPP header.


I'm leaning towards #2 at this point.

RMPP is fairly complex, so I will probably submit a series of patches, rather than the entire implementation at once.
