[ Upstream commit 8ad314da54c6dd223a6b6cc85019160aa842f659 ]

In ath12k_mac_op_hw_scan(), the return value of kzalloc() is directly
used in memcpy(), which may lead to a NULL pointer dereference on
failure of kzalloc().

Fix this bug by adding a check of arg.extraie.ptr.

Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.0-03427-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-1.15378.4

[ Upstream commit 1e9b1363e2de1552ee4e3d74ac8bb43a194f1cb4 ]

Currently ath12k define WMI_HOST_HW_MODE_DBS_OR_SBS=5 as max hw mode
for enum wmi_host_hw_mode_config_type, it is also same for the array
ath12k_hw_mode_pri_map.

When tested with new version firmware/board data which support new
hw mode eMLSR mode with hw mode value 8, it leads overflow usage for
array ath12k_hw_mode_pri_map in function ath12k_wmi_hw_mode_caps(),
and then lead preferred_hw_mode changed to 8, and finally function
ath12k_pull_mac_phy_cap_svc_ready_ext() select the capability of hw
mode 8, but the capability of eMLSR mode report from firmware does
not support 2.4 GHz band for WCN7850, so finally 2.4 GHz band is
disabled.

Skip the hw mode which exceeds WMI_HOST_HW_MODE_MAX in function
ath12k_wmi_hw_mode_caps() helps to avoid array overflow, then the 2.4
GHz band will not be disabled.

This is to keep compatibility with newer version firmware/board data
files, this change is still needed after ath12k add eMLSR hw mode 8 in
array ath12k_hw_mode_pri_map and enum wmi_host_hw_mode_config_type,
because more hw mode maybe added in next firmware/board data version
e.g hw mode 9, then it will also lead new array overflow without this
change.

[ Upstream commit afb522b36e76acaa9f8fc06d0a9742d841c47c16 ]

Currently when ath12k_dp_cc_desc_init() is called we allocate
memory to rx_descs and tx_descs. In ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup(), during
descriptor cleanup rx_descs and tx_descs memory is not freed.

This is cause of memory leak. These allocated memory should be
freed in ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup.

In ath12k_dp_cc_desc_init(), we can save base address of rx_descs
and tx_descs. In ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup(), we can free rx_descs and
tx_descs memory using their base address.

[ Upstream commit 2f5124e86ae74b7ba24c9ae2644107b750cbf38f ]

Currently the extraie length is directly used to allocate skb buffer. When
the length of skb is greater than the max message length which firmware
supports, error will happen in firmware side.

Hence add check for the skb length and drop extraie when overflow and
print a message.

[ Upstream commit 5d7cf67f72ae34d38e090bdfa673da4aefe4048e ]

A mouse that uses a USB connection is called a "USB mouse" device (or
"USB mouse" for short), not a "mouse USB" device.  By analogy, a WiFi
adapter that connects to the host computer via USB is a "USB wireless"
device, not a "wireless USB" device.  (The latter term more properly
refers to a defunct Wireless USB specification, which described a
technology for sending USB protocol messages over an ultra wideband
radio link.)

Similarly for a WiFi adapter card that plugs into a PCIe slot: It is a
"PCIe wireless" device, not a "wireless PCIe" device.

Rephrase the text in the kernel source where the word ordering is
wrong.

Is there any real reason to apply this commit to the -stable kernels?
I did not mark it that way when it was submitted, and it doesn't fix
any bugs.  In fact, aside from updating some module and device
description strings, all it does is change a bunch of comments.

Does that really fall under the -stable rules for acceptance?

Not really, this is just documentation, it should be dropped from the
autosel queues.
