[lvc-project] [PATCH 5.4/5.10 0/1] Backport fix for CVE-2023-52531

[Nikita Zhandarovich]

This patch fixes CVE-2023-52531 [1] present in 5.4 and 5.10 stable
kernels. The vulnerability concerns flawed pointer arithmetic in
iwlwifi driver caused by use of spurious casting to (u8 *). Original
upstream commit [3] removed that cast but kept a change to increment
a pointer first and only then cast it to (void *) or other type.

However, as older branches did not receive commit 3827cb59b3b8
("iwlwifi: avoid void pointer arithmetic") [2], the aforementioned
kept change is also missing, which should be corrected and applied
to other vulnerable versions. This backport ensures that correction
and keeps away from dangerous void pointer arithmetic.

[PATCH 5.4/5.10 1/1] wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: Fix a memory corruption issue
Change 'channels' pointer before casting it to (void *).
Fixes [1].
