Revert "wifi: ath6k: silence false positive -Wno-dangling-pointer warning on GCC 12"
[ Upstream commit a1ce186db7f0e449f35d12fb55ae0da2a1b400e2 ]
This reverts commit bd1d129daa3ede265a880e2c6a7f91eab0f4dc62.
The dangling-pointer warnings were disabled kernel-wide by commit 49beadbd47c2
("gcc-12: disable '-Wdangling-pointer' warning for now") for v5.19. So this
hack in ath6kl is not needed anymore.
