net/mlx4_core: Load higher level modules according to ports type
Mellanox ConnectX architecture is: mlx4_core is the lower level PCI driver which register on the PCI id, and protocol specific drivers are depended on it: mlx4_en - for Ethernet and mlx4_ib for Infiniband. NIC could have multiple ports which can change their type dynamically. We use the request_module() call to load the relevant protocol driver when needed: on loading time or at port type change event.
