In commit 8020919a9b ("mac80211: Properly handle SKB with radiotap
only"), buffers whose length is too short cause a WARN_ON(1) to be
executed. This change exposed a fault in rtlwifi drivers, which is fixed
by regarding packets with skb->len <= FCS_LEN as though they are in error
and dropping them. The test is now annotated as likely.

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.
