This might make more sense as cap_ib_multicast / cap_ip_multicast

These should probably be cap_ib_sa - that is what they are guarding
against.

But it seems redudent, since mcast_add_one will already not add a port that is
not IB, so mcast_event_handler is not callable. Something to do with
rocee/ib switching?

Again, this seems redundant, every port is tested directly below, why
is this check needed?

Looking at this, I do wonder how a port can dynamically change between
rocee and IB.. If the link value changes then mcast_remove_one will
not be a perfect reversal of mcast_add_one. Bug?

It feels necessary to understand what happens when a port dynamically
switches to ethernet on mlx hardware to validate these patches :(
