If possible:
 - recompile (make) and reinstall to kernel (make install) Lustre o2ib

Otherwise:
 - uninstall and reinstall onto the host Lustre o2ib (assuming that
	the Lustre installation compiles its modules on that host
	during the installation process and then installs them,
	rather than just copying over pre-compiled modules to
	/lib/modules/<kernel version>/drivers/kernel/infiniband
