[PATCH 1/3] wifi: ath11k: mark some QMI driver event helpers as noinline

[Jeff Johnson]

When compiling the ath11k driver using clang with KASAN enabled, the
following warning is observed:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/qmi.c:3199:13: warning: stack frame size (1560) exceeds limit (1024) in 'ath11k_qmi_driver_event_work' [-Wframe-larger-than]

This is similar to the issue found in ath12k/qmi.c that was discussed
in [1] and fixed with [2]. The issue is that clang inlining can
explode stack usage.

Just as in ath12k, ath11k_qmi_driver_event_work() itself is a pretty
lightweight function, but it dispatches to several other functions
which do the real work:

ath11k_qmi_driver_event_work()
	ath11k_qmi_event_server_arrive()
		ath11k_qmi_fw_ind_register_send()
		ath11k_qmi_host_cap_send() *
		ath11k_qmi_event_load_bdf()
	ath11k_qmi_event_mem_request()
		ath11k_qmi_respond_fw_mem_request()
	ath11k_qmi_event_load_bdf()
	ath11k_qmi_wlanfw_m3_info_send() *
		ath11k_qmi_m3_load()
	ath11k_qmi_process_coldboot_calibration()

Of these, the two marked with * have non-trivial stack usage. Mark
those functions as 'noinline_for_stack' to prevent them from being
inlined in ath12k_qmi_driver_event_work(), thereby eliminating the
excessive stack usage.

Note that this approach is a bit more "surgical" than the ath12k
approach as only the two functions with the largest stack usage are
modified.
