oh, thanks...!

I was expecting there is an ib_device->uverbs_cmd_mask
flag which siw does not set... Unfortunately, it is not
completely clear to me when a command mask bit is available
and when the OFA core strictly expects a function pointer.
Maybe there is some redundancy/inconsistency?


Thanks,
Bernard.
