[PATCH v2 1/3] wifi: wcn36xx: fix heap overflow from oversized firmware HAL response

[Tristan Madani]

From: Tristan Madani <tristan at talencesecurity.com>

The firmware response dispatcher copies all synchronous HAL responses
into the 4096-byte hal_buf without validating the response length. A
response exceeding WCN36XX_HAL_BUF_SIZE causes a heap buffer overflow
with firmware-controlled content.

Add a bounds check on the response length.

Fixes: 8e84c2582169 ("wcn36xx: mac80211 driver for Qualcomm WCN3660/WCN3680 hardware")
