I'm running with 3.3.3 which is pretty recent.

The "Redhat 3965 IB kernel" came up fine on an Intel Shasta box (don't
know the exact
model# etc).

It looks like the problem is system dependent and reproducible on Dell 2650's.

Has anybody lately tested on a Dell 2650?

Btw, if I comment out  mthca_reset() in mthca_main.c, then the drivers
load and ports go active on the 2650.

I suggest somebody review the reset path in mthca... In the past we
have had problems reseting Tavor on some platforms and chose not to
reset at driver load time.
