Stone Zhang f5d77d0d41 wifi: ath11k: fix node corruption in ar->arvifs list
[ Upstream commit 31e98e277a ]

In current WLAN recovery code flow, ath11k_core_halt() only
reinitializes the "arvifs" list head. This will cause the
list node immediately following the list head to become an
invalid list node. Because the prev of that node still points
to the list head "arvifs", but the next of the list head "arvifs"
no longer points to that list node.

When a WLAN recovery occurs during the execution of a vif
removal, and it happens before the spin_lock_bh(&ar->data_lock)
in ath11k_mac_op_remove_interface(), list_del() will detect the
previously mentioned situation, thereby triggering a kernel panic.

The fix is to remove and reinitialize all vif list nodes from the
list head "arvifs" during WLAN halt. The reinitialization is to make
the list nodes valid, ensuring that the list_del() in
ath11k_mac_op_remove_interface() can execute normally.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
