Current policy is to take the part of the configuration that is correct
and ignore the errors (logging the line numbers on which they occur).
This seems to be slightly better than defaulting back to the default
partition config (just default partition with IPoIB) as it is likely to
be closer to what the admin wants as a policy so I'd prefer to leave it
this way unless there's some stronger motivation to change this.
