This means we only use the safer method if the HCA doesn't support
the other one.  All other RDMA ULP that support both methods have
a module_param so the veto from Dave is a bit unfortunate.  Anyway,
let's get the code in for now and figure out what to use later.

Just curious:  where / how do you see worse peformance using FRs?
