Jeff Johnson bf2da5c4f5 wifi: ath12k: Decrease ath12k_mac_station_assoc() stack usage
Building the ath12k driver with llvm-18.1.7-x86_64 produces the warning:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/mac.c:5606:12: warning: stack frame size (1176) exceeds limit (1024) in 'ath12k_mac_op_sta_state' [-Wframe-larger-than]

ath12k_mac_op_sta_state() itself does not consume much stack, but it
calls ath12k_mac_handle_link_sta_state() which in turn calls
ath12k_mac_station_add(). Since those are both static functions with
only one caller, it is suspected that these both get inlined, and
their stack usage is reported for ath12k_mac_op_sta_state().

A major contributor to the ath12k_mac_station_assoc() stack usage is:

	struct ath12k_wmi_peer_assoc_arg peer_arg;

Avoid the excess stack usage by dynamically allocating peer_arg
instead of declaring it on the stack.

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.
