It was intentional:

commit 232796a623f28bd205d15acac44bb007b8fc64be

    Fix shared library filenames
    
    We expect the filename to reflect the symbol versions in the file,
    this means, eg libibverbs1.3 should have the IBVERBS_1.3 as the newest
    symbol. The same applies to all libraries.
    
    verbs was not updated in commit 3ca7a103148 when new symbols were added
    
    umad/rdmacm probably legitimately had a '.1' someday, but failed to
    follow symver convention. Bump it back down.
    
    Since distros are not using it in packaging the shared library version
    and filename is no longer used by anything. We simply want it to follow
    our own internal conventions.
    
    Fixes: 3ca7a1031486 ("ibverbs: Add support for packet pacing")
