Anant Thazhemadam 05725b40b9 nl80211: validate key indexes for cfg80211_registered_device ...

commit 2d9463083ce92636a1bdd3e30d1236e3e95d859e upstream.

syzbot discovered a bug in which an OOB access was being made because
an unsuitable key_idx value was wrongly considered to be acceptable
while deleting a key in nl80211_del_key().

Since we don't know the cipher at the time of deletion, if
cfg80211_validate_key_settings() were to be called directly in
nl80211_del_key(), even valid keys would be wrongly determined invalid,
and deletion wouldn't occur correctly.
For this reason, a new function - cfg80211_valid_key_idx(), has been
created, to determine if the key_idx value provided is valid or not.
cfg80211_valid_key_idx() is directly called in 2 places -
nl80211_del_key(), and cfg80211_validate_key_settings().
