[PATCHv3] mac80211: fix NULL ptr dereference during mesh peer connection for non HE devices

[Abinaya Kalaiselvan <akalaise@codeaurora.org>]

"sband->iftype_data" is not assigned with any value for non HE supported
devices, which causes NULL pointer access during mesh peer connection
in those devices. Fix this by accessing the pointer after HE
capabilities condition check.

v3:
* Indentation warning is fixed 
v2:
* ieee80211_sta_he_cap structure instance is initialized.
