When testing the previous patch with CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS, I've noticed the following: UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in net/mac80211/scan.c:372:4 index 0 is out of range for type 'struct ieee80211_channel *[]' CPU: 0 PID: 1435 Comm: wpa_supplicant Not tainted 6.9.0+ #1 Hardware name: LENOVO 20UN005QRT/20UN005QRT <...BIOS details...> Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x2d/0x90 __ubsan_handle_out_of_bounds+0xe7/0x140 ? timerqueue_add+0x98/0xb0 ieee80211_prep_hw_scan+0x2db/0x480 [mac80211] ? __kmalloc+0xe1/0x470 __ieee80211_start_scan+0x541/0x760 [mac80211] rdev_scan+0x1f/0xe0 [cfg80211] nl80211_trigger_scan+0x9b6/0xae0 [cfg80211] ...<the rest is not too useful...> Since '__ieee80211_start_scan()' leaves 'hw_scan_req->req.n_channels' uninitialized, actual boundaries of 'hw_scan_req->req.channels' can't be checked in 'ieee80211_prep_hw_scan()'. Although an initialization of 'hw_scan_req->req.n_channels' introduces some confusion around allocated vs. used VLA members, this shouldn't be a problem since everything is correctly adjusted soon in 'ieee80211_prep_hw_scan()'. Cleanup 'kmalloc()' math in '__ieee80211_start_scan()' by using the convenient 'struct_size()' as well.
