From: Matthias Kaehlcke mka@chromium.org
commit aa1702dd162f420bf85ecef0c77686ef0dbc1496 upstream.
__ieee80211_amsdu_copy_frag intentionally initializes a pointer to array[-1] to increment it later to valid values. clang rightfully generates an array-bounds warning on the initialization statement.
Initialize the pointer to array[0] and change the algorithm from increment before to increment after consume.
