[PATCH] ath9k: fix an uninit value use in ath9k_htc_rx_msg()

From: Alexander Potapenko
Date: Thu Aug 25 2022 - 04:06:18 EST


ath9k_htc_rx_msg() assumes skb->data contains a full
`struct htc_frame_hdr`, thus it needs a call to pskb_may_pull()
to ensure there is enough data.

This fixes a long-standing issue reported by KMSAN:
