This number of QPs (and any other resource) is per HCA basis.

The HCA itself support much more QPs (and more elements from any other 
resource),
but the driver have limited the number of the QPs to consume less memory.

The mthca low level driver support changing the number of resources with 
module parameters,
this need to be done with the connectX low level driver as well.

Until those module parameters will be added, the only way to do is to 
hack the low level driver.
