[ofa-general] [PATCH] mlx4_ib: Fix dispatch of IB_EVENT_LID_CHANGE

When snooping a portinfo MAD, it's client_reregister bit is checked. 
If the bit is ON then a CLIENT_REREGISTER event is dispatched, otherwise
a LID_CHANGE event is dispatched. This way of decision ignores the cases
where the MAD changes the LID along with an instruction to reregister (so a
necessary LID_CHANGE event won't be dispatched) or the MAD is neither of
these (and an unnecessary LID_CHANGE event will be dispatched). 

This patch dispatches an event if the client_reregister bit is set.
In addition, the patch compares the LID in the MAD to the current LID.
If and only if they are not identical then a LID_CHANGE event is dispatched.
