6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 130067e9c13bdc4820748ef16076a6972364745f ]
If there's any vendor-specific element in the subelements
then the outer element parsing must not parse any vendor
element at all. This isn't implemented correctly now due
to parsing into the pointers and then overriding them, so
explicitly skip vendor elements if any exist in the sub-
elements (non-transmitted profile or per-STA profile).
Fixes: 671042a4fb77 ("mac80211: support non-inheritance element")
