[ Upstream commit ac4e317a95a1092b5da5b9918b7118759342641c ]
A malicious USB device can send a WMI_SWBA_EVENTID event from an ath9k_htc-managed device before beaconing has been enabled. This causes a device-by-zero error in the driver, leading to either a crash or an out of bounds read.
Prevent this by aborting the handling in ath9k_htc_swba() if beacons are not enabled.
