Right now, they are in reserved range:
        /* reserve bits 26-31 for low level drivers' internal use */
        IB_QP_CREATE_RESERVED_START             = 1 << 26,
        IB_QP_CREATE_RESERVED_END               = 1ULL << 31,

If we move them to kernel part, we will need to define reserved range
there too. So we just "burn" extra bits just for mlx4, also I don't see
any reason to promote mlx4 bits to be general ones.

Thanks
