Does The RXE one mean rxe_mr_init(), I think rxe_reg_user_mr() requires this.

  48 static void rxe_mr_init(int access, struct rxe_mr *mr)
  49 {
  50         u32 key = mr->elem.index << 8 | rxe_get_next_key(-1);
  51
  52         /* set ibmr->l/rkey and also copy into private l/rkey
  53          * for user MRs these will always be the same
  54          * for cases where caller 'owns' the key portion
  55          * they may be different until REG_MR WQE is executed.
  56          */
  57         mr->lkey = mr->ibmr.lkey = key;
  58         mr->rkey = mr->ibmr.rkey = key;
  59
  60         mr->access = access;
  61         mr->ibmr.page_size = PAGE_SIZE;
  62         mr->page_mask = PAGE_MASK;
  63         mr->page_shift = PAGE_SHIFT;
  64         mr->state = RXE_MR_STATE_INVALID;
  65 }
