Subject: [PATCH 4.4 027/112] ath6kl: prevent potential array overflow in ath6kl_add_new_sta()

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

[ Upstream commit 54f9ab7b870934b70e5a21786d951fbcf663970f ]

The value for "aid" comes from skb->data so Smatch marks it as
untrusted.  If it's invalid then it can result in an out of bounds array
access in ath6kl_add_new_sta().
