Subject: RDMA/uverbs: Fix the check for port number

From: Ismail, Mustafa <[email protected]>

commit 5a7a88f1b488e4ee49eb3d5b82612d4d9ffdf2c3 upstream.

The port number is only valid if IB_QP_PORT is set in the mask. So only check port number if it is valid to prevent modify_qp from failing due to an invalid port number.

Fixes 5ecce4c9b17b("Check port number supplied by user verbs cmds")
