Subject: [PATCH] ethtool: fix ethtool msg len calculation for pause stats
Git-commit: 1aabe578dd86e9f2867c4db4fba9a15f4ba1825d
Patch-mainline: v5.16-rc1
References: stable-5.14.19

[ Upstream commit 1aabe578dd86e9f2867c4db4fba9a15f4ba1825d ]

ETHTOOL_A_PAUSE_STAT_MAX is the MAX attribute id,
so we need to subtract non-stats and add one to
get a count (IOW -2+1 == -1).

Otherwise we'll see:

ethnl cmd 21: calculated reply length 40, but consumed 52
