Looking at https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=1a3986bbd3169c307819
and running reproducer with CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS, I've noticed the
following:
[ T4985] UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in net/wireless/scan.c:3479:25
[ T4985] index 164 is out of range for type 'struct ieee80211_channel *[]'
<...skipped...>
[ T4985] Call Trace:
[ T4985] <TASK>
[ T4985] dump_stack_lvl+0x1c2/0x2a0
[ T4985] ? __pfx_dump_stack_lvl+0x10/0x10
[ T4985] ? __pfx__printk+0x10/0x10
[ T4985] __ubsan_handle_out_of_bounds+0x127/0x150
[ T4985] cfg80211_wext_siwscan+0x11a4/0x1260
<...the rest is not too useful...>
Even if we do 'creq->n_channels = n_channels' before 'creq->ssids =
(void *)&creq->channels[n_channels]', UBSAN treats the latter as
off-by-one error. Fix this by using pointer arithmetic rather than
an expression with explicit array indexing and use convenient
'struct_size()' to simplify the math here and in 'kzalloc()' above.
Fixes:

README
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.
