The MAC stats command takes a port ID, which doesn't exist on
pre-ef10 NICs (5000- and 6000- series). This is extracted from the
NIC specific data; we misinterpret this as the ef10 data structure,
causing us to read potentially unallocated data. With a KASAN kernel
this can cause errors with:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in efx_mcdi_mac_stats
Fixes: 0a2ab4d988 ("sfc: set the port-id when calling MC_CMD_MAC_STATS")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
