This call does nothing because the ib_port kobj is nested under a struct
device kobject and the dev_uevent_filter() function of the struct device
blocks uevents for any children kobj's that are not also struct devices.
A uevent for the struct device will be triggered after
ib_setup_port_attrs() returns which causes udev to pick up all the deep
"attributes" which are implemented as kobjects nested under a struct
device and assign them to the udev object for the struct device:
$ udevadm info -a /sys/class/infiniband/ibp0s9
ATTR{ports/1/counters/excessive_buffer_overrun_errors}=="0"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
