Given the commit below, does it make sense to change the Kconfig stuff
config INFINIBAND_IPATH
tristate "QLogic InfiniPath Driver"
depends on (PCI_MSI || HT_IRQ) && 64BIT && NET
to remove the (PCI_MSI || HT_IRQ), since it seems your new HCA would
still work on a non-MSI-enabled kernel?

IB/ipath: Fix check for no interrupts to reliably fallback to INTx
Newer HCAs support MSI interrupts and also INTx interrupts. Fix the
code so that INTx can be reliably enabled if MSI interrupts are not
working.
