Bug opened BZ857294 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=857294)

What would be a suggestion to work around this ATM and still be able to use and keep the IB cards in the system?

Yes you are right there is a known issue with the mac address length in IB cards. IIRC there was a hardware vendor who was working on a patch to extend the length and add the appropriate validation.
