wcn36xx: use dynamic allocation for large variables

[ Upstream commit 355cf319 ]

clang triggers a warning about oversized stack frames that gcc does not
notice because of slightly different inlining decisions:

ath/wcn36xx/smd.c:1409:5: error: stack frame size of 1040 bytes in function 'wcn36xx_smd_config_bss' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
ath/wcn36xx/smd.c:640:5: error: stack frame size of 1032 bytes in function 'wcn36xx_smd_start_hw_scan' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]

Basically the wcn36xx_hal_start_scan_offload_req_msg,
wcn36xx_hal_config_bss_req_msg_v1, and wcn36xx_hal_config_bss_req_msg
structures are too large to be put on the kernel stack, but small
enough that gcc does not warn about them.

Use kzalloc() to allocate them all. There are similar structures in other
parts of this driver, but they are all smaller, with the next largest
stack frame at 480 bytes for wcn36xx_smd_send_beacon.
