Hi Greg, Sasha, and wifi ath12k maintainers,

These patches are a backport for CVE-2024-40979 on 6.6.y.
The second patch depends on the first, so I kept the upstream ordering
instead of folding either change into the other.

Both patches are already present in 6.12.y, 6.18.y, and 7.2.y. Could you
please queue this series for 6.6.y?

AI assistance: An LLM helped identify, adapt, and validate these backports;
I reviewed the resulting code and validation evidence.

Thanks,
Artem
