[PATCH] libertas: fix buffer overrun

[Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>]

If somebody sends an invalid beacon/probe response, that can trash the
whole BSS descriptor. The descriptor is, luckily, large enough so that
it cannot scribble past the end of it; it's well above 400 bytes long.

Not really tested for lack of hw.

John, this is part of the other patch I sent, but this one's
for 2.6.28.

The function there needs to be reviewed more, it seems to access
potentially invalid memory when an AP sends other, too short,
information elements.
