CVE-2024-49938: wifi: ath9k_htc: Use __skb_set_length() for resetting urb before resubmit

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: ath9khtc: Use skbsetlength() for resetting urb before resubmit

Syzbot points out that skbtrim() has a sanity check on the existing length of the skb, which can be uninitialised in some error paths. The intent here is clearly just to reset the length to zero before resubmitting, so switch to calling skbsetlength(skb, 0) directly. In addition, skbsetlength() already contains a call to skbresettailpointer(), so remove the redundant call.

The syzbot report came from ath9khifusbregincb(), but there's a similar usage of skbtrim() in ath9khifusbrxcb(), change both while we're at it.

  115. Compensating control

    In the Linux kernel ath9k_htc driver, replace skb_trim() with __skb_set_length(skb, 0) in ath9k_hif_usb_reg_in_cb() and ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb() when resetting the URB before resubmission; remove the redundant skb_reset_tail_pointer() call because __skb_set_length() already performs it.
