The dlopen of mlx4 should fail due to unresolved references, so the
net effect will be that no apps cannot open the RDMA device in this
situation - so it is an invalid system configuration that is properly
detected by the runtime.

The hope is once the infrastructure is in libibverbs there will not
be as much need to change libibverbs, just the apps and the drivers.
