Hi again,

Our tool identified a potential vulnerability in a clone function in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/wmi.c sourced from torvalds/linux. These issues, originally reported in CVE-2019-19074, were resolved in the repository via this commit torvalds/linux@728c1e2.

This PR applies the corresponding patch to fix the vulnerabilities in this codebase.

Please review at your convenience. Thank you for your time and attention!

The LLVM disassembler needs ISA extension features enabled to correctly
decode instructions from those extensions. On aarch64, without these
features, instructions like LSE atomics (e.g. ldaddal) are silently
decoded as incorrect instructions and disassembly is truncated.

Use LLVMCreateDisasmCPUFeatures() with "+all" features for aarch64
targets so that the disassembler can handle any instruction the kernel
JIT might emit.

Before:

int bench_trigger_uprobe(void * ctx):

  20:   and     w7, w7, #0xff
