Sorry for late response.

Our hw/fw guys confirm that there is no problem, my suspect is wrong.

To explain clearly how hw translate from remote rdma address to physical 
address in fmr's MTT

X = requested/rdma_va - MPT.start + MPT.fbo
MTT index = X / MPT.blocksize
MTT offset = X % MPT.blocksize
PA = MTT[index] + MTT offset

MPT - memory protection table
MTT - memory translation table
