Subject: net: hns: fix ethtool_get_strings overflow in hns driver

From: Timmy Li <lixiaoping3@huawei.com>


[ Upstream commit 412b65d15a7f8a93794653968308fc100f2aa87c ]

hns_get_sset_count() returns HNS_NET_STATS_CNT and the data space allocated
is not enough for ethtool_get_strings(), which will cause random memory
corruption.

When SLAB and DEBUG_SLAB are both enabled, memory corruptions like the
the following can be observed without this patch:
