[PATCH 1/3] wifi: ath9k: avoid referencing uninit memory in ath9k_wmi_ctrl_rx

[Fedor Pchelkin]

For the reasons described in commit b383e8abed41 ("wifi: ath9k: avoid
uninit memory read in ath9k_htc_rx_msg()"), ath9k_htc_rx_msg() should
validate pkt_len before accessing the SKB. For example, the obtained SKB
may have uninitialized memory in the case of
ioctl(USB_RAW_IOCTL_EP_WRITE).

Implement sanity checking inside the corresponding endpoint RX handlers:
ath9k_wmi_ctrl_rx() and ath9k_htc_rxep(). Otherwise, uninit memory can
be referenced.

Add comments briefly describing the issue.

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