The upstream of this path is archived, marked unsupported, and hasn't been
touched since 2017. It fails to build from source (bug #1071316).

I checked its reverse dependencies (see https://paste.debian.net/1365959/) and
none of them really use this. They've all migrated to PSM2, and only spuriously
list infinipath-psm as a build-dependency. The only direct dependency is from
an old version of libfabric1, but the new version 2.0.0-4 doesn't use
infinipath. See bugs #1101516 #1101519 #1101520.
