Yep - the Gen1 SRP initiator does. It sends a REQ with an invalid DGID.
If rejected with the correct code (INVALID GID), it will retry after
looking up the GID.

The first one discovered, no?

Agreed. I've indeed overlooked it in the initial patch.

Hmm, I'd rather agree with Roland that passing a rej reason to
cm_destroy_id() would be the cleanest way (while I attempted to go the
easiest) - my brain cannot cope with too many layers of indirection that
easily. ;-)
