iwlwifi: mvm: protect rate scaling against non-mvm IBSS stations
When the driver callback returns that it's out of space for new stations, the mac80211 IBSS code still keeps the station so it doesn't try to add it over and over again. Since the rate scaling algorithm is separate in mac80211, it also invokes the rate scaling algorithm for such stations. It doesn't know that our rate scaling algorithm is tightly integrated with the MVM code and relies on those data structures, and it cannot as the abstraction doesn't allow for it. This leads to crashes when the rate scaling algorithm tries to use uninitialized data, notably the mvmsta->vif pointer. Protect against this in the rate scaling algorithm. We cannot get good rates with such peers anyway since the firmware cannot do anything with them.
