Subject: IB/mlx5: Fix kernel to user leak prevention logic

From: Eli Cohen <eli@mellanox.com>

commit de8d6e02efbdb259c67832ccf027d7ace9b91d5d upstream.

The logic was broken as it failed to update the response length for
architectures with PAGE_SIZE larger than 4kB. As a result further
extension of the ucontext response struct would fail.
