Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx4: fix Tx packet drop application report

[ upstream commit e3ecea72a85626a0708625b7ad9a290ebdecfe24 ]

When invalid lkey is sent to HW, HW sends an error notification in
completion function.

The previous code wouldn't crash but doesn't add any application report
in case of completion error, so application cannot know that packet
actually was dropped in case of invalid lkey.

Return back the lkey validation to Tx path.

Fixes: 2eee458746bc ("net/mlx4: remove error flows from Tx fast path")
