From: Pardeep Kaur <pardeep.kaur at oss.qualcomm.com>
The fw_tx_status[], tx_wbm_rel_source[], and tqm_rel_reason[] arrays
are indexed directly by values read from hardware without bounds checks.
Values at or beyond MAX_FW_TX_STATUS, HAL_WBM_REL_SRC_MODULE_MAX, or
MAX_TQM_RELEASE_REASON respectively would write past the end of the
arrays causing memory corruption.
Add likely() bounds checks before incrementing each counter. For
tx_wbm_rel_source[] and tqm_rel_reason[], add WARN_ON_ONCE() on the
out-of-bounds else branch. For fw_tx_status[], no WARN_ON_ONCE is added
since the switch statement that follows already calls ath12k_warn() in
its default: branch for unknown values, avoiding a double-warn.
Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.6.r1-00402-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
Fixes: c5c62287e690 ("wifi: ath12k: Add device dp stats support")
