Smatch is distrustful of the "capab" value and marks it as user controlled. I think it actually comes from the firmware? Anyway, I looked at other drivers and they added a bounds check and it seems like a harmless thing to have so I have added it here as well.

I'm getting slightly annoyed that we now apparently have two duplicate rtlwifi drivers (with the same name!) and I'm being spammed by staging patches. Was this really a smart thing to do? And what will be the future of these two drivers? (Of course this is not directed to Dan, he is just fixing bugs found by smatch, but more like a general question.) -- Kalle Valo
