6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit c53d8a59351e4347452e263e2e5d7446ec93da83 ]
The AP removal timer field need not be aligned, so the
code shouldn't access it directly, but use unaligned
loads. Use get_unaligned_le16(), which even is shorter
than the current code since it doesn't need a cast.
