commit 0ef049dc upstream. When CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set, the sta_info_insert_finish function consumes more stack than normally, exceeding the 1024 byte limit on ARM: net/mac80211/sta_info.c: In function 'sta_info_insert_finish': net/mac80211/sta_info.c:561:1: error: the frame size of 1080 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] It turns out that there are two functions that put a 'struct station_info' on the stack: __sta_info_destroy_part2 and sta_info_insert_finish, and this structure alone requires up to 792 bytes. Hoping that both are called rarely enough, this replaces the on-stack structure with a dynamic allocation, which unfortunately requires some suboptimal error handling for out-of-memory. The __sta_info_destroy_part2 function is actually affected by the stack usage twice because it calls cfg80211_del_sta_sinfo(), which has another instance of struct station_info on its stack.
