Based on observation, it looks like ipoib joins a couple of IPv6 multicast 
groups with send only membership.  However it changes the join_state from 4 to 
1 
(send-only to full member).  This results in the SA trying to create the 
multicast group, only the required MCMemberRecord components have not been set.

I'm not sure if this indicates a serious problem, but I'm guessing not.  The 
join request simply fails and returns an error back to ipoib.  (Which would 
have 
happened for a send-only join if the group hadn't already been created.)
