The issues (I think) are a) being able to appropriately fail a bad IP address (i.e. not an RDMA device), b) interpreting the addresses in the net_device structure, and c) muxing the request to either the IB_CM or IW_CM respectively. Unfortunately, I'm still working through the design and don't have it all figured out yet. I will absolutely be posting preliminary patches for comment and review.
