wifi: mwifiex: configure BSSID consistently when starting AP

AP BSSID configuration is missing at AP start. Without this fix, FW returns
STA interface MAC address after first init. When hostapd restarts, it gets MAC
address from netdev before driver sets STA MAC to netdev again. Now MAC address
between hostapd and net interface are different causes STA cannot connect to
AP. After that MAC address of uap0 mlan0 become the same. And issue disappears
after following hostapd restart (another issue is AP/STA MAC address become the
same).

This patch fixes the issue cleanly.

mwifiex: Fix three heap overflow at parsing element in cfg80211_ap_settings

mwifiex_update_vs_ie(),mwifiex_set_uap_rates() and
mwifiex_set_wmm_params() call memcpy() without checking
the destination size.Since the source is given from
user-space, this may trigger a heap buffer overflow.

Fix them by putting the length check before performing memcpy().

This fix addresses CVE-2019-14814,CVE-2019-14815,CVE-2019-14816.

cfg80211: remove enum ieee80211_band

This enum is already perfectly aliased to enum nl80211_band, and
the only reason for it is that we get IEEE80211_NUM_BANDS out of
it. There's no really good reason to not declare the number of
bands in nl80211 though, so do that and remove the cfg80211 one.
