MPIAIJ implements MatGetSubMatrix, so it returns a new, efficient MatMPIAIJ
matrix.  This patch only affects matrix types that do not implement
MatGetSubMatrix, and thus fall back on creating a MatSubMatrix (which just
holds a reference to the original matrix and implements multiplication
through scatters).

So calling MatMultAdd using a matrix of any type other than MatSubMatrix is
unrelated to my patch.
