[PATCH] libertas: Read buffer overflow

Several arrays were read before checking whether the index was within
bounds. ARRAY_SIZE() should be used to determine the size of arrays.
rates->rates has an arraysize of 1, so calling get_common_rates()
with a rates_size of MAX_RATES (14) was causing reads out of bounds.
Since ratesize is at most MAX_RATES, tmp_size can increment at most
to MAX_RATES * ARRAY_SIZE(lbs_bg_rates), so that should be the number
of elements of tmp[].
