The 0xffff value in only used internally in the driver to indicate an
invalid id and isn't exposed to userspace. For userspace there is a
validity field as you suggested:

+       return uverbs_copy_to(attrs,
EFA_IB_ATTR_QUERY_MR_RESP_PCI_BUS_ID_VALIDITY,
+                             &pci_bus_id_validity,
sizeof(pci_bus_id_validity));
