Subject: [PATCH 4.18 118/197] RDS: IB: fix passing zero to ERR_PTR() warning

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

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

From: YueHaibing <yuehaibing@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit 5941923da29e84bc9e2a1abb2c14fffaf8d71e2f ]

Fix a static code checker warning:
 net/rds/ib_frmr.c:82 rds_ib_alloc_frmr() warn: passing zero to 'ERR_PTR'

The error path for ib_alloc_mr failure should set err to PTR_ERR.
