4.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Shiraz Saleem <[email protected]> commit 6c7d46fdb8165ece4b0a17fb8f0b9320dbfeffc2 upstream. iwdev->mem_resources is incorrectly defined as an unsigned long instead of u8. As a result, the offset into the dynamic allocated structures in i40iw_initialize_hw_resources() is incorrectly calculated and would lead to writing of memory regions outside of the allocated buffer.
