staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_action_frame_parse()grafted
rtw_action_frame_parse() takes a frame_len parameter but never actually checks it before indexing into the frame body: const u8 *frame_body = frame + sizeof(struct ieee80211_hdr_3addr); ... c = frame_body[0]; ... a = frame_body[1]; frame_body already points 24 bytes (sizeof(struct ieee80211_hdr_3addr)) into frame, so reading frame_body[0] and frame_body[1] requires frame_len >= 26. A management action frame shorter than that (e.g. exactly 24 bytes, the minimum a malicious peer can send) causes a 1-2 byte out-of-bounds read. This is reachable from rtw_cfg80211_monitor_if_xmit_entry() and cfg80211_rtw_mgmt_tx() in ioctl_cfg80211.c, both of which pass attacker/user-influenced frame buffers and lengths straight through. Add the missing length check before frame_body is dereferenced.

+
+Panthor DRM client usage stats implementation
+==============================================
+
+The drm/Panthor driver implements the DRM client usage stats specification as
+documented in :ref:`drm-client-usage-stats`.
+
+Example of the output showing the implemented key value pairs and entirety of
+the currently possible format options:
+
+::
+ pos: 0
+ flags: 02400002
+ mnt_id: 29
+ ino: 491
+ drm-driver: panthor
+ drm-client-id: 10
+ drm-engine-panthor: 111110952750 ns
+ drm-cycles-panthor: 94439687187
+ drm-maxfreq-panthor: 1000000000 Hz
+ drm-curfreq-panthor: 1000000000 Hz
+ panthor-resident-memory: 10396 KiB
+ panthor-active-memory: 10396 KiB
+ drm-total-memory: 16480 KiB
+ drm-shared-memory: 0
+ drm-active-memory: 16200 KiB
+ drm-resident-memory: 16480 KiB
+ drm-purgeable-memory: 0
+
+Possible `drm-engine-` key names are: `panthor`.
+`drm-curfreq-` values convey the current operating frequency for that engine.
+
+Users must bear in mind that engine and cycle sampling are disabled by default,
+because of power saving concerns. `fdinfo` users and benchmark applications which
+query the fdinfo file must make sure to toggle the job profiling status of the
+driver by writing into the appropriate sysfs node::
+
+ echo <N> > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/panthor/[a-f0-9]*.gpu/profiling
+
+Where `N` is a bit mask where cycle and timestamp sampling are respectively
+enabled by the first and second bits.
+
+Possible `panthor-*-memory` keys are: `active` and `resident`.
+These values convey the sizes of the internal driver-owned shmem BO's that
+aren't exposed to user-space through a DRM handle, like queue ring buffers,
+sync object arrays and heap chunks. Because they are all allocated and pinned
+at creation time, only `panthor-resident-memory` is necessary to tell us their
+size. `panthor-active-memory` shows the size of kernel BO's associated with
+VM's and groups currently being scheduled for execution by the GPU.
