Bug Description

[Impact]
On reboot, initialization commands can timeout causing the mellanox card to not initialize on boot.

[Test Case]
Reboot the system many, many times (this issue is rare).

[Regression Risk]
The fix comes from upstream and was submitted by Mellanox to bring the driver in-line with the way their firmware works.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-trusty' to 'verification-done-trusty'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
