My colleague informed me that he has submitted a patch to do that
through the rdma tree:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-rdma&m=148217575500983&w=2

But it hasn't been merged yet.  I can drop this patch now and wait for
the RDMA patch to show up on net-next. Or I make the change later to
use the common define when the RDMA patch is merged.  Thanks.
