The ko2iblnd-probe script looks in /sys/class/infiniband for device names 
starting with “hfi” or “qib”.  If it detects those, it decides that the 
“profile” it should use is “opa” so then it basically invokes the ko2iblnd-opa 
modprobe line.  But the script has no logic to detect other types of card (i.e. 
- mellanox), so in those cases, no ko2iblnd options are used and you end up 
with the default module parameters being used.

If you want to use the script, you will need to modify ko2iblnd-probe to add a 
new case for your brand of HCA and then add an appropriate ko2iblnd-<profile> 
line to ko2iblnd.conf.

Or just do what I did and comment out all the lines in ko2iblnd.conf and add 
your own lines.
