[PATCH 2/3] wifi: cfg80211: move link_id validation earlier in nl80211_new_station()

[Slawomir Stepien <sst@poczta.fm>]

I do not see a reason why this check is so low in the function. Move it
up right next to param fetch.

This new position is more beneficial for AP/Link state check that will
be added in upcoming commit.
