Subject: [PATCH 6.0 308/862] wifi: ath11k: fix number of VHT beamformee spatial streams

From: Jesus Fernandez Manzano <jesus.manzano@...gus.net>

[ Upstream commit 55b5ee3357d7bb98ee578cf9b84a652e7a1bc199 ]

The number of spatial streams used when acting as a beamformee in VHT
mode are reported by the firmware as 7 (8 sts - 1) both in IPQ6018 and
IPQ8074 which respectively have 2 and 4 sts each. So the firmware should
report 1 (2 - 1) and 3 (4 - 1).

Fix this by checking that the number of VHT beamformee sts reported by
the firmware is not greater than the number of receiving antennas - 1.
The fix is based on the same approach used in this same function for
sanitizing the number of sounding dimensions reported by the firmware.

Without this change, acting as a beamformee in VHT mode is not working
properly.

Tested-on: IPQ6018 hw1.0 AHB WLAN.HK.2.5.0.1-01208-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
Tested-on: IPQ8074 hw2.0 AHB WLAN.HK.2.5.0.1-01208-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
