[ Upstream commit 16ee3ea8faef8ff042acc15867a6c458c573de61 ]
When userspace sets supported rates for a new station via
NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION, it might send a list that's empty
or contains only invalid values. Currently, we process these
values in sta_link_apply_parameters() without checking the result of
ieee80211_parse_bitrates(), which can lead to an empty rates bitmap.
A similar issue was addressed for NL80211_CMD_SET_BSS in commit
ce04abc3fcc6 ("wifi: mac80211: check basic rates validity").
This patch applies the same approach in sta_link_apply_parameters()
for NL80211_CMD_NEW_STATION, ensuring there is at least one valid
rate by inspecting the result of ieee80211_parse_bitrates().
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.

[ Summary of conflict resolutions:
- Function ieee80211_parse_bitrates() takes channel width as its
first parameter in mainline kernel version. In v5.15 the function
takes the whole chandef struct as its first parameter.
- The same function takes link station parameters as its last
parameter, and in v5.15 they are in a struct called sta,
instead of a struct called link_sta. ]
