If the beacon head attribute (NL80211_ATTR_BEACON_HEAD)
is too short to even contain the frame control field,
we access uninitialized data beyond the buffer. Fix this
by checking the minimal required size first. We used to
do this until S1G support was added, where the fixed
data portion has a different size.

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 Restructured Text 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.
