Subject: rtlwifi: rtl8192c-common: Fix "BUG: KASAN:

From: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>

commit 6773386f977ce5af339f9678fa2918909a946c6b upstream.

Kernels built with CONFIG_KASAN=y report the following BUG for rtl8192cu
and rtl8192c-common:

...

The problem is due to rtl8192ce and rtl8192cu sharing routines, and having
different layouts of struct rtl_pci_priv, which is used by rtl8192ce, and
struct rtl_usb_priv, which is used by rtl8192cu. The problem was resolved
by placing the struct bt_coexist_info at the head of each of those private
areas.
