From: Moni Shoua monis@mellanox.com

commit 05d14e7b0c138cb07ba30e464f47b39434f3fdef upstream.

If the input command length is larger than the kernel supports an error should be returned in case the unsupported bytes are not cleared, instead of the other way aroudn. This matches what all other callers of ib_is_udata_cleared do and will avoid user ABI problems in the future.
