wifi: ath9k: fix fortify warnings
[ Upstream commit 810e41ce ] When compiling with gcc 13.1 and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y, I've noticed the following: In function ‘fortify_memcpy_chk’, inlined from ‘ath_tx_complete_aggr’ at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/xmit.c:556:4, inlined from ‘ath_tx_process_buffer’ at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/xmit.c:773:3: ./include/linux/fortify-string.h:529:25: warning: call to ‘__read_overflow2_field’ declared with attribute warning: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning] 529 | __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In function ‘fortify_memcpy_chk’, inlined from ‘ath_tx_count_frames’ at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/xmit.c:473:3, inlined from ‘ath_tx_complete_aggr’ at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/xmit.c:572:2, inlined from ‘ath_tx_process_buffer’ at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/xmit.c:773:3: ./include/linux/fortify-string.h:529:25: warning: call to ‘__read_overflow2_field’ declared with attribute warning: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning] 529 | __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In both cases, the compiler complains on: memcpy(ba, &ts->ba_low, WME_BA_BMP_SIZE >> 3); which is the legal way to copy both 'ba_low' and following 'ba_high' members of 'struct ath_tx_status' at once (that is, issue one 8-byte 'memcpy()' for two 4-byte fields). Since the fortification logic seems interprets this trick as an attempt to overread 4-byte 'ba_low', silence relevant warnings by using the convenient 'struct_group()' quirk.
