    gnu: openmpi: Raise the priority of the PSM2 component.
    
    This allows us to get better performance by default on machines with
    OmniPath hardware.
    
    * gnu/packages/patches/openmpi-psm2-priority.patch: New file.
    * gnu/packages/mpi.scm (openmpi)[source]: Use it.
    * gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.

+PSM2 is the only valid implementation for OmniPath (OPA).  UCX also
+supports OmniPath, but it does so via Verbs, thus getting much lower
+performance (typically 3 GiB/s instead of 10 GiB/s).
+
+To work around that, give the mtl_psm2 component a higher priority
+than the pml_ucx component.
