[Users] Update mellanox drivers

[Kenja, Krishna (kenjakt)]

 Hello Russell,


I do have mlx5_ib.ko file and was hoping to use that for mlx5 driver. Is there a way to check if mlx5 is supported?

The mlx4 and mlx5 drivers support different HCAs. I don't think you
can use mlx5_core with mlx4_en/mlx4_ib.
