[PATCH ath-next] wifi: ath12k: validate TLV length in process_tpc_stats()

[Jeff Johnson]

The outer skb->len guard only confirms the SKB is large enough
to hold the full fixed_param struct, but the TLV's own WMI_TLV_LEN
field is never checked. Firmware advertising a TLV length shorter
than sizeof(*fixed_param) causes reads of pdev_id and event_count
beyond the declared TLV payload.

Add a check that the TLV length is at least sizeof(*fixed_param)
before casting and dereferencing the pointer.
