[ Upstream commit 5e88e864118c20e63a1571d0ff0a152e5d684959 ]

In one of the error paths, the memory allocated for skb_rx is not freed.
Fix that by freeing it before returning.

[ Upstream commit b7bcea9c27b3d87b54075735c870500123582145 ]

While converting struct ieee80211_tim_ie::virtual_map to be a flexible
array it was observed that the TIM IE processing in cw1200_rx_cb()
could potentially process a malformed IE in a manner that could result
in a buffer over-read. Add logic to verify that the TIM IE length is
large enough to hold a valid TIM payload before processing it.

'destroy_workqueue()' already drains the queue before destroying it, so
there is no need to flush it explicitly.

Remove the redundant 'flush_workqueue()' calls.

This was generated with coccinelle:

<title>cw1200: Revert unnecessary patches that fix unreal use-after-free bugs</title>

[ Upstream commit 3f60f4685699aa6006e58e424637e8e413e0a94d ]

A previous commit 4f68ef64cd7f ("cw1200: Fix concurrency
use-after-free bugs in cw1200_hw_scan()") tried to fix a seemingly
use-after-free bug between cw1200_bss_info_changed() and
cw1200_hw_scan(), where the former frees a sk_buff pointed
to by frame.skb, and the latter accesses the sk_buff
pointed to by frame.skb. However, this issue should be a
false alarm because:

(1) "frame.skb" is not a shared variable between the above
two functions, because "frame" is a local function variable,
each of the two functions has its own local "frame" - they
just happen to have the same variable name.

(2) the sk_buff(s) pointed to by these two "frame.skb" are
also two different object instances, they are individually
allocated by different dev_alloc_skb() within the two above
functions. To free one object instance will not invalidate
the access of another different one.

Based on these facts, the previous commit should be unnecessary.
Moreover, it also introduced a missing unlock which was
addressed in a subsequent commit 51c8d24101c7 ("cw1200: fix missing
unlock on error in cw1200_hw_scan()"). Now that the
original use-after-free is unreal, these two commits should
be reverted. This patch performs the reversion.

Fixes: 51c8d24101c7 ("cw1200: fix missing unlock on error in cw1200_hw_scan()")

They're never read, so there is no reason for them to exist.

They just cause the compiler to complain.

Fixes the following W=1 kernel build warning(s):

 drivers/net/wireless/st/cw1200/wsm.c: In function ‘wsm_ba_timeout_indication’:

<title>treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a7f7f6248d9740d710fd6bd190293fe5e16410ac</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'
