If this is to be separate the options should be consistent with the
other ibv_xxx examples as follows: 
        printf("  -d, --ib-dev=<dev>     use IB device <dev> (default first device found)\n");
        printf("  -i, --ib-port=<port>   use port <port> of IB device (default 1)\n");

Also, perhaps since this is similar to ibv_devinfo, it should be merged
into it perhaps as an command line option for more verbose. That might
be the best approach and if so, patches to Roland would be in order.
