When the FW bundles multiple packets, pkt->act_len may be incorrect
as it refers to the first packet only (however, the FW will only
bundle packets that fit into the same pkt->alloc_len).

Before this patch, the skb length would be set (incorrectly) to
pkt->act_len in ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_packet, and then later manually
adjusted in ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_process_packet.

The first problem is that ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_process_packet does not
use proper skb_put commands to adjust the length (it directly changes
skb->len), so we end up with a mismatch between skb->head + skb->tail
and skb->data + skb->len. This is quite serious, and causes corruptions
in the TCP stack, as the stack tries to coalesce packets, and relies
on skb->tail being correct (that is, skb_tail_pointer must point to
the first byte_after_ the data).

Instead of re-adjusting the size in ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_process_packet,
this moves the code to ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_packet, and also add a
bounds check, as skb_put would crash the kernel if not enough space is
available.

Tested with QCA6174 SDIO with firmware
WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00007-QCARMSWP-1.

Kalle: Can you please help prioritize the review and merge of this
patch? This is quite a serious regression (the rest of the series is
performance improvement and probably a little less urgent).

Ok, I'll prioritise this (but I have not reviewed it yet).

But in the future if there's something urgent, it's best to submit the
patch separately and label it with "[PATCH 5.3]" or something like that:

https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches#tree_labels

This way I can find the patch faster.
