I think these 2 should be combined. The question is if a port requires the use
of the SA depending on the network it is connected to.

Aren't some dual port Mellanox cards capable of doing IB on 1 port and Eth on
the other? Do they show up as 2 devices?

Regardless I think we should define the SA access on a per port basis.

The logic here should be:

if (no ports of this device need sa access)
return;

So why not eliminate this check and allow the cap_sa(s) to handle the support?
