[ofa-general] Starting openibd before the network service

[Kossey, Robert]

Hi Moshe,

You may be aware that Voltaire OFED changed the start order of openibd 
to be before network to fix a problem that an IB bond device would not 
come up correctly after a reboot.  I know I've seen that with Red Hat.

I would like to see that fixed in OFED 1.3.1, as well as the panics I 
reported with IPoIB:
