From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
[ Upstream commit 5fd2f91ad483baffdbe798f8a08f1b41442d1e24 ]
If TDLS station addition is rejected, the sta memory is leaked.
Avoid this by moving the check before the allocation.
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: 7ed5285396c2 ("mac80211: don't initiate TDLS connection if station is not associated to AP")
