I feel these are two separate issues. Having a large enough TLV that the
firmware cannot parse it is highly unlikely to happen, and not really an
issue here.

Please split this into two patches, and fix *just* the buffer overflow
in a patch titled "Fix buffer overflow". I believe simply changing the
variable type is sufficient for this, as the code is otherwise
equivalent. That's a patch I'd take to wireless at this stage (rc5), but
probably not the entire bigger change.

Yes, let me send the 2 patch separately .
