Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 18.04 images in the marketplace do not automatically load the
required mlx drivers. (mlx4_ib|mlx5_ib and mlx4_en|mlx5_en)

Someone trying DPDK on Ubuntu 18.04 has raised an issue on Azure DPDK
document(https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/issues/44303).

To reproduce, bring up an ubuntu 18.04 VM on Azure.  There you can see
only mlx4_en but not the other one(mlx4_ib):

# lsmod | grep mlx4
mlx4_en               118784  0
mlx4_core             294912  1 mlx4_en

We would expect there to be 4 kernel modules loaded such as:
mlx[4|5]_ib, rdma_cm, rdma_ucm, and ib_ipoib
