Check to see if some other driver failed to load.
I think I have seen before that if another driver
fails to load, the start script bails out and
does not load the other drivers.

Perhaps try doing a /etc/init.d/openibd restart 
manually to see if something is failing to load.

FWIW, I see the following in /etc/infiniband/openibd.conf:

# Start HCA driver upon boot
ONBOOT=yes

#...

# Load RDMA_CM module
RDMA_CM_LOAD=yes
