[PATCH] wifi: nl80211: Set num_sub_specs before looping through sub_specs
Posted by Kees Cook 2 months, 2 weeks ago
The processing of the struct cfg80211_sar_specs::sub_specs flexible
array requires its counter, num_sub_specs, to be assigned before the
loop in nl80211_set_sar_specs(). Leave the final assignment after the
loop in place in case fewer ended up in the array.

Fixes: aa4ec06c455d ("wifi: cfg80211: use __counted_by where appropriate")
