Hi Doug and Jason,

Here are two patches that would be good to land in the RC. One fixes a bug
found by KASAN that was marked stable. The other fixes something that was
introduced in the last release cycle.

Both patches are pretty small.

      IB/hfi1: Fix a latency issue for small messages

      IB/hfi1: Fix an out-of-bounds access in get_hw_stats

The first patch was more of a performance issue than a true bugfix.  I
took it, but mainly because it was small and the commit message implied
the regression was significant.
