A little further up:

                        /* headroom, head length, tail length, custom IEs, and
                         * mesh IEs + maximum TIM length */
                        skb = dev_alloc_skb(local->tx_headroom +
                                            beacon->head_len +
                                            beacon->tail_len +
                                            ifmsh->ie_len + 400);

we made room for the max TIM element.
