3.16.40-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 7e75f74a171a8146cc3ee92d5562878b40c25fb5 upstream.
The size reported by rtnl_vfinfo_size doesn't match the space used by
rtnl_fill_vfinfo.
rtnl_vfinfo_size currently doesn't account for the nest attributes
used by statistics (added in commit 3b766cd83232), nor for struct
ifla_vf_tx_rate (since commit ed616689a3d9, which added ifla_vf_rate
to the dump without removing ifla_vf_tx_rate, but replaced
ifla_vf_tx_rate with ifla_vf_rate in the size computation).
Fixes: 3b766cd83232 ("net/core: Add reading VF statistics through the PF netdevice")
Fixes: ed616689a3d9 ("net-next:v4: Add support to configure SR-IOV VF minimum and maximum Tx rate through ip tool")

[bwh: Backported to 3.16: only need to add space for IFLA_VF_TX_RATE]
