Subject: [PATCH] Fix buffer overflow in print_hw_addr() (downstream-only, upstream EOL)
The existing print_hw_addr() helper uses a fixed 49-byte buffer, which is
too small for longer hardware addresses such as InfiniBand (20 bytes). This
can overflow the static output buffer when formatting addresses as
colon-separated hexadecimal bytes.
