In that mode, I suppose it also requires an admin to reset it when the
node for the ib_sa module fails.

Not necessarily.  See C13-43.1.1:

When a request for a particular MADHeader:MgmtClass has been redirected to another location, that location shall continue to service requests for the MADHeader:MgmtClass until either the location becomes inoperable for some reason or the requests are redirected again away from that location.

Separately from admin or SA controlled redirection, the ib_sa module will need to determine when to fail back to the master SM/SA. I would do this based on X number of retries/timeouts.
