[ofa-general] Problems with mlx4

[Andrey Slepuhin]

Aha, just got latest firmware tools from Mellanox with ConnectX support 
and realized that the firmware was 2.0.147... After upgrading (but to 
2.0.158 - that's the only firmware revision I got from Mellanox) the 
link was initialized, so I started to build the userspace... Thanks, Roland!

Best regards,
Andrey
