cfg80211: Validate frequencies nested in NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES
validate_scan_freqs() retrieves frequencies from attributes nested in the attribute NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES with nla_get_u32(), which reads 4 bytes from each attribute without validating the size of data received. Attributes nested in NL80211_ATTR_SCAN_FREQUENCIES don't have an nla policy. Validate size of each attribute before parsing to avoid potential buffer overread.
