The ib_uverbs_reg_mr_resp structure was not 64 bit end aligned
as required by the protocol. This causes alignment issues
if a device specific driver needs to transfer extra response
arguments.

Avoid breaking backward compatibility by improving the handling
of the length checking in ib_uverbs_reg_mr to consider the case
where the kernel has been updated, but user space still has
the old length without padding.

You don't preserve the minimum response size error checking in your code (i.e -ENOSPC). We can expect an error if outlen is less than the
offset of rkey in ib_uverbs_reg_mr_resp.

Please note that below call to copy_to_user will succeed as it copies now based on resp_size and won't return the basic mandatory output.
