Subject: [PATCH 3.16 086/410] ath9k_htc: Add a sanity check in
 ath9k_htc_ampdu_action()

3.16.57-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit 413fd2f5c0233d3cde391679b967c1f14cd2cb27 upstream.

Smatch generates a warning here:

    drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_drv_main.c:1688 ath9k_htc_ampdu_action()
    error: buffer overflow 'ista->tid_state' 8 <= 15

I don't know if it's a real bug or not but the other paths through this
function all ensure that "tid" is less than ATH9K_HTC_MAX_TID (8) so
checking here makes things more consistent.

Fixes: fb9987d0f748 ("ath9k_htc: Support for AR9271 chipset.")
