Upstream commit dbc2970caef74e8ff41923d302aa6fb5a4812d0e.
An incorrect sge sizing in the HFI PIO path will cause an OOPs similar to this:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [] hfi1_verbs_send_pio+0x3d8/0x530 [hfi1] PGD 0 Oops: 0000 1 SMP Call Trace: ? hfi1_verbs_send_dma+0xad0/0xad0 [hfi1] hfi1_verbs_send+0xdf/0x250 [hfi1] ? make_rc_ack+0xa80/0xa80 [hfi1] hfi1_do_send+0x192/0x430 [hfi1] hfi1_do_send_from_rvt+0x10/0x20 [hfi1] rvt_post_send+0x369/0x820 [rdmavt] ib_uverbs_post_send+0x317/0x570 [ib_uverbs] ib_uverbs_write+0x26f/0x420 [ib_uverbs] ? security_file_permission+0x21/0xa0 vfs_write+0xbd/0x1e0 ? mntput+0x24/0x40 SyS_write+0x7f/0xe0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
Fix by adding the missing sizing check to correctly determine the sge length.

This fails to apply to 4.9.y :(
