Subject: [PATCH 4.9 043/128] mwifiex: prevent an array overflow

[ Upstream commit b4c35c17227fe437ded17ce683a6927845f8c4a4 ]

The "rate_index" is only used as an index into the phist_data->rx_rate[]
array in the mwifiex_hist_data_set() function.  That array has
MWIFIEX_MAX_AC_RX_RATES (74) elements and it's used to generate some
debugfs information.  The "rate_index" variable comes from the network
skb->data[] and it is a u8 so it's in the 0-255 range.  We need to cap
it to prevent an array overflow.

Fixes: cbf6e05527a7 ("mwifiex: add rx histogram statistics support")
