bnxt_hwrm_func_backing_store_qcaps_v2() stores resp->type from the
firmware response in ctxm->type and later uses that value to index
fixed backing-store metadata arrays such as ctx_arr[] and
bnxt_bstore_to_trace[] without a local range check.
Validate the returned type before storing it and abort the query when
firmware reports a type outside BNXT_CTX_V2_MAX. Keep next_valid_type in
a dedicated variable so loop control stays clear for non-valid or
unchanged entries while resp->type is validated directly before use.
Fixes: 6a4d0774f02d ("bnxt_en: Add support for new backing store query firmware API")

v3:
- mark the patch for net
- add a Fixes tag
- replace resp_type with next_type for loop control and validate resp->type directly
