Subject: [PATCH 4.18 145/350] RDMA/core: Do not expose unsupported counters

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Parav Pandit <parav@...lanox.com>

[ Upstream commit 0f6ef65d1c6ec8deb5d0f11f86631ec4cfe8f22e ]

If the provider driver (such as rdma_rxe) doesn't support pma counters,
avoid exposing its directory similar to optional hw_counters directory.
If core fails to read the PMA counter, return an error so that user can
retry later if needed.

Fixes: 35c4cbb17811 ("IB/core: Create get_perf_mad function in sysfs.c")
