Subject: [PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 001/129] mlx4: Fix tx ring affinity_mask creation

3.16.7-ckt12 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Benjamin Poirier <bpoirier@...e.de>

commit 42eab005a5dd5d7ea2b0328aecc4d6cc0c23c9c2 upstream.

By default, the number of tx queues is limited by the number of online cpus
in mlx4_en_get_profile(). However, this limit no longer holds after the
ethtool .set_channels method has been called. In that situation, the driver
may access invalid bits of certain cpumask variables when queue_index >=
nr_cpu_ids.

Fixes: d03a68f ("net/mlx4_en: Configure the XPS queue mapping on driver load")
