Mikhail Lobanov 16ee3ea8fa wifi: mac80211: check basic rates validity in sta_link_apply_parameters
When userspace sets supported rates for a new station via
NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION, it might send a list that's empty
or contains only invalid values. Currently, we process these
values in sta_link_apply_parameters() without checking the result of
ieee80211_parse_bitrates(), which can lead to an empty rates bitmap.

A similar issue was addressed for NL80211_CMD_SET_BSS in commit
ce04abc3fc ("wifi: mac80211: check basic rates validity").
This patch applies the same approach in sta_link_apply_parameters()
for NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION, ensuring there is at least one valid
rate by inspecting the result of ieee80211_parse_bitrates().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
