Subject: [ 13/21] NTB: fix pointer math issues

3.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit cc0f868d8adef7bdc12cda132654870086d766bc upstream.

->remote_rx_info and ->rx_info are struct ntb_rx_info pointers.  If we
add sizeof(struct ntb_rx_info) then it goes too far.
