Nicolas Escande 9065b96875 wifi: ath11k: zero init info->status in wmi_process_mgmt_tx_comp()
When reporting tx completion using ieee80211_tx_status_xxx() family of
functions, the status part of the struct ieee80211_tx_info nested in the
skb is used to report things like transmit rates & retry count to mac80211

On the TX data path, this is correctly memset to 0 before calling
ieee80211_tx_status_ext(), but on the tx mgmt path this was not done.

This leads to mac80211 treating garbage values as valid transmit counters
(like tx retries for example) and accounting them as real statistics that
makes their way to userland via station dump.

The same issue was resolved in ath12k by commit 9903c0986f ("wifi:
ath12k: Add memset and update default rate value in wmi tx completion")

Tested-on: QCN9074 PCI WLAN.HK.2.9.0.1-01977-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1

Fixes: d5c65159f2 ("ath11k: driver for Qualcomm IEEE 802.11ax devices")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
