Sure there is an interest, spare CPU cycles are never superfluous
in production environment! What hardware (NICs/chipsets) supports this
I/OAT DMA engine?

Oh, and there is nothing changed in the NIC and its driver, this is just
stack changes together with the chipset dma driver I wrote, so any
NIC on a system will benefit.
