  The sample flow tried to get the reserved metadata register for
match implicitly, and if the reserved metadata register was invalid
then back to use the application tag.

The assertion failure was caused while getting register due to
the reserved metadata regC is invalid on CX-5 trusted device(VF/SF).

This patch adds the checking for reserved metadata register before
getting the register, to avoid assertion failure.

Fixes: 9a726360dd30 ("net/mlx5: fix sample flow action on trusted device")
