Changes were made in bug [1] to fix an issue where mlx4_en was not loaded.
The following change was added:

cat /etc/modprobe.d/mlx4.conf
# mlx4_core should load mlx4_en (LP: #1115710).
softdep mlx4_core post: mlx4_en

This change is no longer needed since [2] also see testing in [3]

Without /etc/modprobe.d/mlx4.conf and having following in 
/etc/modprobe.d/mlx4_core.conf
options mlx4_core log_num_mgm_entry_size=-1

# lsmod | grep mlx
