 From Slava:
 The Infiniband dissector currently uses a heuristic where it attempts to parse
 IBA payloads as if they contained encapsulated traffic with an Ethertype
 header. While a relatively common occurrence and thus a fairly useful feature,
 this heuristic in many cases causes false-positives which invoke unneeded
 dissectors and generate noise in the form of unjustified "malformed packet"
 errors these dissectors cause. This patch adds a checkbox to the Infiniband
 preferences menu that allows users to disable this feature if desired. The
 option remains on by default.
