It is still useful in some cases for testing. Retain the ability to select PHYSICAL memory registration capability via /proc/sys/sunrpc/rdma_memreg_strategy, but don't fall back to it if the HCA does not support FRWR or FMR. This means amso1100 no longer works out of the box with NFS/RDMA. When using amso1100 HCAs, set the memreg_strategy sysctl to 6 before performing NFS/RDMA mounts.
