Am having the following check-git-log errors:

Headline too long:
        net/mlx5: cleanup the allocation of the buffer used for the ethtool 
stats
Wrong tag:
        Fixes: a4193ae3bc4f ('net/mlx5: support extended statistics')
Wrong 'Fixes' reference:
        Fixes: a4193ae3bc4f ('net/mlx5: support extended statistics')
Is it candidate for Cc: sta...@dpdk.org backport?
        net/mlx5: cleanup the allocation of the buffer used for the ethtool 
stats

is the below suggestion[1] acceptable? If so I will merge into next-net-mlx

    net/mlx5: cleanup allocation of ethtool stats
    
    Simplify the computation for the needed size:
    - exact size for the structure header,
    - exact size for a number of 64-bit counters.
