This is all more infiniband high-performance networking stuff. If you don't
immediately know what it is, odds are you will never need it in your life.
I was equally puzzled as to why I have these packages on my (relatively clean)
workstation as I certainly haven't intentionally installed them, but at some
point they seem to have grown as a dep of something else:
# dnf erase libibverbs
Error:
Problem: The operation would result in removing the following protected
packages: systemd
# dnf erase rdma-core

OK, so looking around a bit shows that libpcap depends on libibverbs
(presumably for a good reason), and from what I can see libpcap might have
been pulled in by wine; however, erasing libpcap also seems to want to
uninstall systemd for reasons that are not clear to me, unless systemd now
depends on wine (!):
# rpm -q --whatrequires libpcap
no package requires libpcap
# rpm -q --whatrequires libpcap.so.1
no package requires libpcap.so.1
# rpm -q --whatrequires 'libpcap(x86-64)'
wine-core-6.0-1.fc33.x86_64
# rpm -q --whatrequires 'libpcap(x86-32)'
wine-core-6.0-1.fc33.i686
# dnf erase libpcap
Error:

rpmreaper doesn't seem to show any dep between libpcap and systemd either.
