Fedor Pchelkin 5f6f00bcf9 wifi: ath9k: protect WMI command response buffer replacement with a lock
[ Upstream commit 454994cfa9e4c18b6df9f78b60db8eadc20a6c25 ]

If ath9k_wmi_cmd() has exited with a timeout, it is possible that during
next ath9k_wmi_cmd() call the wmi_rsp callback for previous wmi command
writes to new wmi->cmd_rsp_buf and makes a completion. This results in an
invalid ath9k_wmi_cmd() return value.

Move the replacement of WMI command response buffer and length under
wmi_lock. Note that last_seq_id value is updated there, too.

Thus, the buffer cannot be written to by a belated wmi_rsp callback
because that path is properly rejected by the last_seq_id check.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
