Yeah, the more I think about it, keeping it separate seems like the right
thing to do. What bothers me primarily is that the internal logic is
identical between the RDMA controller and this one. If you wanna try
factoring them out into library, great. If not, I don't think it should
block merging this controller. We can get to refactoring later.

Thanks.
