Something here I am not sure to follow -- if AF_IB consumers are allowed 
to provide 64-bit SID, how
the IB port space is expressed in their SIDs?

Wouldn't it make sense to use a simpler approach that has a dedicated 
IB_PS in the port space
portion of the RDMA-CM IP IBTA annex and let the consumer provide 16 
bits for their part of the SID?

Or.
