wifi: cfg80211: fix 6 GHz scan request building
The 6 GHz scan request struct allocated by cfg80211_scan_6ghz() is meant to be formed this way: [base struct][channels][ssids][6ghz_params] It is allocated with [channels] as the maximum number of channels supported by the driver in the 6 GHz band, since allocation is before knowing how many there will be. However, the inner pointers are set incorrectly: initially, the 6 GHz scan parameters pointer is set: [base struct][channels] ^ scan_6ghz_params and later the SSID pointer is set to the end of the actually _used_ channels. [base struct][channels] ^ ssids If many APs were to be discovered, and many channels used, and there were many SSIDs, then the SSIDs could overlap the 6 GHz parameters. Additionally, the request->ssids for most of the function points to the original request still (given the struct copy) but is used normally, which is confusing. Clear this up, by actually using the allocated space for 6 GHz parameters _after_ the SSIDs, and set up the SSIDs initially so they are used more clearly. Just like in nl80211.c, set them only if there actually are SSIDs though. Finally, also copy the elements (ie/ie_len) so they're part of the same request, not pointing to the old request.
