Subject: [PATCH] Revert "ath10k: add sanity check to ie_len before parsing fw/board ie"
Git-commit: 9ce8b24aa96e983a540bb8244298a10322881ef4
Patch-mainline: v4.16-rc1
References: FATE#326906
This reverts commit 9ed4f91628737c820af6a1815b65bc06bd31518f.
The commit introduced a regression that over read the ie with
the padding.
- the expected IE information
ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: found firmware features ie (1 B)
ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: Enabling feature bit: 6
ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: Enabling feature bit: 7
ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: features
ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: 00000000: c0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
- the wrong IE with padding is read (0x77)
ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: found firmware features ie (4 B)
ath10k_pci 0000:03:00.0: Enabling feature bit: 6
