[ Upstream commit b7139960832eb56fa15d390a4b5c8c5739bd0d1a ]
When the FW bundles multiple packets, pkt->act_len may be incorrect
as it refers to the first packet only (however, the FW will only
bundle packets that fit into the same pkt->alloc_len).
Before this patch, the skb length would be set (incorrectly) to
pkt->act_len in ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_packet, and then later manually
adjusted in ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_process_packet.
The first problem is that ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_process_packet does not
use proper skb_put commands to adjust the length (it directly changes
skb->len), so we end up with a mismatch between skb->head + skb->tail
and skb->data + skb->len. This is quite serious, and causes corruptions
in the TCP stack, as the stack tries to coalesce packets, and relies
on skb->tail being correct (that is, skb_tail_pointer must point to
the first byte_after_ the data).
Instead of re-adjusting the size in ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_process_packet,
this moves the code to ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_packet, and also add a
bounds check, as skb_put would crash the kernel if not enough space is
available.
Tested with QCA6174 SDIO with firmware
WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00007-QCARMSWP-1.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
