This actually doesn't match what IB adapters do: if the whole adapter is
being reset, mlx4 and mthca just report DEVICE_FATAL for the whole
device. I think the QP_FATAL event should be when something gets
screwed up so some work requests are lost (ie no completions will ever
come) but the device as a whole is OK.
As an example, the Open MPI code seems to handle DEVICE_FATAL but not do
the same thing for QP_FATAL etc.
