Subject: [PATCH 5.3 099/135] staging: wilc1000: fix illegal memory access in wilc_parse_join_bss_param()

From: Ajay Singh <ajay.kathat@...rochip.com>

commit c7e621bb981b76d3bfd8a595070ee8282ac4a32b upstream.

Do not copy the extended supported rates in 'param->supp_rates' if the
array is already full with basic rates values. The array size check
helped to avoid possible illegal memory access [1] while copying to
'param->supp_rates' array.
