[PATCH] ath10k: Fix possible out of bound access of ath10k_rates array

[Sriram R]

While using 'ath10k_mac_get_rate_hw_value()' to obtain the hw value
from the passed bitrate, there is a chance of out of bound array access
when wrong bitrate is passed. This is fixed by comparing the bitrates
within the correct size of the ath10k_rates array.

Fixes commit f279294e9ee2 ("ath10k: add support for configuring management
packet rate")
(Also correction made to some indents used in the above commit)
