RDMA/core: Use kvzalloc when allocating the struct ib_port

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1952579
[ Upstream commit 911a81c9c7092bfd75432ce79b2ef879127ea065 ]

The 'struct attribute' flex array contains some struct lock_class_key's
which become big when lockdep is turned on. Big enough that some drivers
will not load when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y because they cannot allocate
enough memory:
