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

wifi: ath12k: Avoid NULL pointer access during management transmit cleanup

Currently 'ar' reference is not added in skbcb. Though this is generally not used during transmit completion callbacks, on interface removal the remaining idr cleanup callback uses the ar pointer from skbcb from management txmgmt_idr. Hence fill them during transmit call for proper usage to avoid NULL pointer dereference.

Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.0.1-00029-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
