wifi: ath12k: fix stride mismatch in mac_phy_caps_parse()
Currently, in ath12k_wmi_mac_phy_caps_parse(), kzalloc() sizes the
mac_phy_caps buffer as tot_phy_id * len, where len is clamped to
min(firmware_len, sizeof(struct ath12k_wmi_mac_phy_caps_params)). The
subsequent memcpy() destination advances by sizeof(full struct) per slot
via C pointer arithmetic, not by the clamped len. When firmware sends
short TLVs, the second and later slots are written past the end of the
allocation.
The reader in ath12k_pull_mac_phy_cap_svc_ready_ext() also indexes the
buffer with full-struct pointer arithmetic, so the allocation must match
that stride.
Fix by using kzalloc_objs(), which derives the element size from the
pointer type, making allocation size and pointer stride provably
consistent regardless of what len the firmware provides.
