When a node boots from an InfiniBand interface, doxcat could not match BOOTIF
to the netdev, so boot-nic detection failed. Load ib_ipoib and, if the normal
Ethernet lookup finds nothing, fall back to matching the InfiniBand device by
its (shorter) IPoIB address.
modprobe ib_ipoib is harmless where there is no IB hardware (the module simply
loads no devices), and the IB lookup only runs when the Ethernet lookup fails,
so non-IB nodes are unaffected.
Not lab-validated (no InfiniBand fabric available; the SR635's Mellanox card is
in Ethernet mode).
Recovered from the unmerged lenovobuild branch (aeeebd5f).
