From: Seungjin Bae <eeodqql09@gmail.com>

In ar5523_data_rx_cb(), the `rxlen` variable is derived from desc->len,
which is provided by the USB device.

The function checks for an upper bound (rxlen > ar->rxbufsz) and for a
zero value (!rxlen), but it fails to check for a proper lower bound
against the size of the descriptor.

If a malicious device provides an `rxlen` value that is positive
but smaller than sizeof(struct ar5523_rx_desc), the subtraction in
the call to skb_put() will result in an integer underflow.

This passes a very large unsigned value to skb_put(), which then
triggers a kernel panic upon detecting the potential buffer overflow.

Fix this by adding a check to ensure `rxlen` is at least
sizeof(struct ar5523_rx_desc) before performing the subtraction.

Additionally, `rxlen` is not cross-checked against usblen (the number
of bytes actually received). Since the frame layout is
[ar5523_chunk][802.11 payload][ar5523_rx_desc] and `usblen` covers the
whole buffer, a valid rxlen cannot exceed `usblen - sizeof(chunk)`. A
device reporting a larger `rxlen` would cause skb_put() to expose
descriptor trailer bytes or uninitialized skb tail data as 802.11
payload to ieee80211_rx_irqsafe().

Add a check to reject such frames.
