[ofa-general] OpenSM initialization error

[Yicheng Jia]

Yes. This persists for nearly 1 minute.

One thing I notice is if I start mthca driver more than 1 minute before 
OpenSM starts, then there's no such error message anymore, this is gone. 
So I guess there's some handshaking going on between mthca driver and 
unmanaged switch firmware, which stablize communication before OpenSM 
starts. Do you have any idea about it?

Thanks!

Is this topology simply one switch surrounded by HCAs ? If so, I don't
have a theory as to why this message persists for 1 second.
