I ran a boot with this patch applied:

diff --git a/include/linux/mlx4/device.h b/include/linux/mlx4/device.h
index 83e80ab..c84aea0 100644

 #define MSIX_LEGACY_SZ         4
 #define MIN_MSIX_P_PORT                5

I went for a max of 8192, since I was actually booting the machine with
6144 cores (not 4096) for this run.  It doesn't look like this fixed the
problem.  I still saw the same errors during boot.

FWIW, the module does appear to still successfully load:

8<---
# lsmod | grep mlx
mlx4_ib               151552  0
ib_sa                  32768  1 mlx4_ib
ib_mad                 49152  2 ib_sa,mlx4_ib
ib_core               102400  3 ib_sa,mlx4_ib,ib_mad
mlx4_core             278528  1 mlx4_ib
--->8

If the module loading is good enough, and we should just ignore the
errors, then I'm fine with that.  Just wanting to make sure that
everything is behaving correctly.
