6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dmitry Antipov <dmantipov@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 1a0d24775cdee2b8dc14bfa4f4418c930ab1ac57 ]
In 'cfg80211_scan_6ghz()', an instances of 'struct cfg80211_colocated_ap'
are allocated as if they would have 'ssid' as trailing VLA member. Since
this is not so, extra IEEE80211_MAX_SSID_LEN bytes are not needed.
Briefly tested with KUnit.
Fixes: c8cb5b854b40 ("nl80211/cfg80211: support 6 GHz scanning")
