Oh, I think I see the problem. From the output of the above command:

+ echo Setting up InfiniBand network interfaces:
Setting up InfiniBand network interfaces:
+ for i in '$interfaces'
+ [[ ! -e /etc/infiniband/ifcfg-ib0 ]]
+ [[ ! -e /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ib0 ]]
+ echo 'No configuration found for ib0'
No configuration found for ib0

While IPOIB_LOAD and SET_IPOIB_CM are set to yes, the code path that
turns on connected mode is only reached if there is a network script for
the interface (which there isn't, in this case). This seems wrong to me
- the interface should come up in connected mode regardless of the
presence of the network script, and I should be able to configure the IP
address (and gateway, and broadcast, etc.) later.
