Hi Shamir,

Nice to see this one soon on the list,
Just to make $subject more relevant. How about below?

RDS: fix congestion map corruption for PAGE_SIZE > 8k

If you refresh the patch against 4.6-rc1, you won't need to
patch iw_recv.c :-)

This hunk I missed out looks like. This doesn't belong to the
$subject patch. Could you please add this in separate patch. I
will need more than just "some hw (e.g. sparc) require aligned memory"

Once you fix these, please repost the updated version, and I will add
them to the 4.7 queue. Thanks !!
