Actually I got more worried about this. If tim_len >
sizeof(arvif->u.ap.tim_bitmap) don't we read out of bounds? So we should
actually add return for that case or am I missing something?

Full code:

		WARN_ON_ONCE(sizeof(arvif->u.ap.tim_bitmap) < tim_len);

		for (i = 0; i < tim_len; i++) {
			t = tim_info->tim_bitmap[i / 4];
			v = __le32_to_cpu(t);
			arvif->u.ap.tim_bitmap[i] = (v >> ((i % 4) * 8)) & 0xFF;
		}
