Commit e5e884b42639 ("libertas: Fix two buffer overflows at parsing bss
descriptor") introduced a bounds check on the number of supplied rates to
lbs_ibss_join_existing() and made it to return on overflow.
However, the aforementioned commit doesn't set the return value accordingly
and thus, lbs_ibss_join_existing() would return with zero even though it
failed.
Make lbs_ibss_join_existing return -EINVAL in case the bounds check on the
number of supplied rates fails.
Fixes: e5e884b42639 ("libertas: Fix two buffer overflows at parsing bss
descriptor")This should be in one line, I'll fix it during commit. -- https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
