  - wifi: mt76: mt7925: ensure tx headroom in usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb mt7925_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb() pushes
    a TX descriptor and a USB header onto every skb and assumes the headroom for them is already there. That
    holds for locally generated traffic, where mac80211 reserves hw->extra_tx_headroom, but forwarded frames
    are sent through ieee80211_8023_xmit(), which does not reserve it. Bridge a wired interface to an mt7925u
    AP and the first forwarded frame that arrives short panics the kernel: skbuff: skb_under_panic: len:415

    depends on how much headroom the ingress netdev leaves in its rx skbs. Reproduced on a Raspberry Pi 5
    bridging onboard ethernet to a Netgear A9000; originally reported on an MT7986 router running OpenWrt.
    Nick Morrow's testing on a Pi 4 (bcmgenet), which leaves more headroom, helped narrow the trigger to the
    ingress path. The same bug was fixed on mt7921 by commit 98c4d0abf5c4 (mt76: mt7921: don't assume
    adequate headroom for SDIO headers), but mt7925 was copied from mt7921 without the fix. Add the same
    guard here. (CVE-2026-80825)
