Paul Zhang 2fcecea407 wifi: cfg80211: Fix bitrates overflow issue 
[ Upstream commit 18429c51c7 ]

When invoking function cfg80211_calculate_bitrate_eht about
(320 MHz, EHT-MCS 13, EHT-NSS 2, EHT-GI 0), which means the
parameters as flags: 0x80, bw: 7, mcs: 13, eht_gi: 0, nss: 2,
this formula (result * rate->nss) will overflow and causes
the returned bitrate to be 3959 when it should be 57646.

Here is the explanation:
 u64 tmp;
 u32 result;
 …
 /* tmp = result = 4 * rates_996[0]
  *     = 4 * 480388888 = 0x72889c60
  */
 tmp = result;

 /* tmp = 0x72889c60 * 6144 = 0xabccea90000 */
 tmp *= SCALE;

 /* tmp = 0xabccea90000 / mcs_divisors[13]
  *     = 0xabccea90000 / 5120 = 0x8970bba6
  */
 do_div(tmp, mcs_divisors[rate->mcs]);

 /* result = 0x8970bba6 */
 result = tmp;

 /* normally (result * rate->nss) = 0x8970bba6 * 2 = 0x112e1774c,
  * but since result is u32, (result * rate->nss) = 0x12e1774c,
  * overflow happens and it loses the highest bit.
  * Then result =  0x12e1774c / 8 = 39595753,
  */
 result = (result * rate->nss) / 8;

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.
