IB/core: Read subnet_prefix in ib_query_port via cache.
ib_query_port() calls device->ops.query_port() to get the port
attributes. The method of querying is device driver specific. The same
function calls device->ops.query_gid() to get the GID and extract the
subnet_prefix (gid_prefix).
The GID and subnet_prefix are stored in a cache. But they do not get
read from the cache if the device is an Infiniband device. The
following change takes advantage of the cached subnet_prefix.
Testing with RDBMS has shown a significant improvement in performance
with this change.
