Some SRP targets that do not support specification SRP-2, put

The problem was not detected for a long time because the SRP
initiator ignored those bits. But now one of them is used as
SRP_LOGIN_RSP_IMMED_SUPP. And it causes a critical error on
the target when the initiator sends immediate data.

The ib_srp module has a use_imm_date parameter to enable or
disable immediate data manually. But it does not help in the above
case, because use_imm_date is ignored at handling the SRP login
response. The problem is definitely caused by a bug on the target
side, but the initiator's behavior also does not look correct.
The initiator should not use immediate data if use_imm_date is
disabled by a user.

This commit adds an additional checking of use_imm_date at
the handling of SRP login response to avoid unexpected use of
immediate data.
