I associate the word bind with bind(2). For that reason, 
rdma_bind_addr() is a good name because it is the CMA's analog for 
bind(2). Since it isn't related to bind(2), I find the name 
rdma_bind_device(dst_addr) confusing.

I was speaking from my experience with NFS/RDMA. If this functionality 
is necessary for implementing iSER, I would definitely support adding 
it.
