I gave it quick look before asking, I looked now again and I think to understand this better - lets see if I'm in the correct direction: The I/OAT related kernel code serves the TCP stack for coping data from the skb to the consumer buffer - for user space consumers this is fairly simple and done behind the kernel cover. For kernel consumers such as iscsi - things go a bit complex as there's richer API and some flavors of it may not be applicable to use the dma functionality - or the other way around - the dma functionality has to be exported/used by the network stack consumer - namely iscsi, nfs, gfs, etc. So this patch set does changes both in the network internals/api and in iscsi logic.
