Unless you really need a specific feature in MOFED I'd recommend you
stay with the, so called, in-box drivers already in CentOS-6.7.

Sounds as if your initramfs got assembled incorrectly. Kernel panic is
usually due to the initramfs not having what it takes to find and mount
the root-fs. You can try to manually update the initrd for a specific
installed kernel.
