The iWARP driver must translate all listens on address 0.0.0.0 to the

incoming connect requests to the TCP ipaddresses from going up the
rdma stack.
I've only given this a high level review at this point, and while the
patch looks okay on first pass, is there a way to move some of this
functionality to either the rdma_cm or iw_cm? I don't like the idea of
every iwarp driver having to implement address/listen list maintenance.
I may have some ideas after re-examining it.
Note: some rnic drivers might want to support this differently. So
maybe we don't want this in the iwcm yet until we see that more iwarp
drivers need exactly the same functionality.
Implementation Details:
There are a couple of areas that I made a note to look at in more detail
(because I didn't understand everything that was happening), but I did
have one minor nit - most uses of list_del_init can just be list_del.
fixed.
