Ok, this works nice for ib_umad:

infiniband_mad umad1: ib_umad_reg_agent2 failed: invalid registration flags 
specified 0x2; supported 0x1
vs.
user_mad: ib_umad_reg_agent2 failed: invalid registration flags specified 0x2; 
supported 0x1


However in ib_mad I'm not so sure.  The error now implies it is the driver 
which is flagging the error, _not_ ib_mad.

For example here is what you get when you change pr_notice to dev_notice in 
ib_mad.

ib_qib 0000:01:00.0: ib_register_mad_agent: invalid RMPP Version 2

OR (There are 2 "struct device" in the struct ib_device passed to the register 
function: dma_device vs dev)

infiniband qib0: ib_register_mad_agent: invalid RMPP Version 2

vs.

ib_mad: ib_register_mad_agent: invalid RMPP Version 2

Either message implies it is the HCA driver which is flagging the error.  Which 
I think is misleading but maybe this is more correct and is the "kernel way"?
