[PATCH v2 3/3] wifi: mac80211: validate deauth frame length before reason access

[Zhao Li]

ieee80211_rx_mgmt_deauth() reads the deauth reason code before checking
that the fixed field is actually present in the received frame.

Validate the deauth frame length first and only then read the reason
code.
