RDMA/rxe: Fix panic when calling kmem_cache_create()

To avoid the following kernel panic when calling kmem_cache_create() with
a NULL pointer from pool_cache(), Block the rxe_param_set_add() from
running if the rdma_rxe module is not initialized.

 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000000000000b

This can be triggered if a user tries to use the 'module option' which is
not actually a real module option but some idiotic (and thankfully no
obsolete) sysfs interface.
