Modify the code to allow passing the link layer of a port from the
kernel to the library.
The new field does not change the size of struct ibv_query_port_resp
as it replaces a reserved field. As such binary compatibility between
the kernel to the library is kept, since old kernel running below new
library will not touch that field so it will be resolved as unspecified,
and old library running over new kernel will ignore the setting done by
the kernel.
The solution was suggested by: Roland Dreier <rol...@purestorage.com>
and Jason Gunthorpe <jguntho...@obsidianresearch.com>
