Subject: [PATCH net] qed: Fix stack corruption on probe

Commit fe56b9e6a8d95 ("qed: Add module with basic common support")
has introduced a stack corruption during probe, where filling a
local struct with data to be sent to management firmware is incorrectly
filled; The data is written outside of the struct and corrupts
the stack.

Fixes: fe56b9e6a8d95 ("qed: Add module with basic common support")

Hi Dave,

In case it isn't obvious at first glance, the corruption is due
to the next line in the for-loop, which isn't changed by the patch.

Please consider applying this to `net'.

Thanks,
Yuval
