No, only modules that can be request_module'd from the initrd should be included in the initrd. AFAIK only the two mellanox drivers do request module, so only those two or three modules (mlx4_ib, mlx4_en, mlx5_ib?) should be included. That sounds like something that should be fixed in the initd package? Or should rdma-core be dropping some kind of hook in a .d directory?
