Subject: [PATCH 5/5] wifi: ath11k: fix stack usage of ath11k_mac_op_remain_on_channel()
Date: Thu, 24 Aug 2023 10:50:48 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230824075121.121144-5-dmantipov@yandex.ru> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230824075121.121144-1-dmantipov@yandex.ru>

When compiling with clang 16.0.6, I've noticed the following:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:8900:12: warning: stack frame
size (1032) exceeds limit (1024) in 'ath11k_mac_op_remain_on_channel'
[-Wframe-larger-than]
static int ath11k_mac_op_remain_on_channel(struct ieee80211_hw *hw,
           ^
68/1032 (6.59%) spills, 964/1032 (93.41%) variables

So switch to kzalloc()'ed instance of 'struct scan_req_params' and
adjust the function in subject accordingly.
