Please de-inline this function and make a rdma_free_hw_stats_struct()
call to pair with it. The hw_stats_data kfree should be in there. If
you do this as a precursor patch this patch will be much smaller.

Also, the 

        stats = kzalloc(sizeof(*stats) + num_counters * sizeof(u64),
                        GFP_KERNEL);

Should be using array_size
