Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ath11k: fix missing skb drop on htctxcompletion error

On htctxcompletion error the skb is not dropped. This is wrong since the completionhandler logic expect the skb to be consumed anyway even when an error is triggered. Not freeing the skb on error is a memory leak since the skb won't be freed anywere else. Correctly free the packet on eid >= ATH11KHTCEPCOUNT before returning.

Tested-on: IPQ8074 hw2.0 AHB WLAN.HK.2.5.0.1-01208-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
