[lvc-project] [PATCH v2] iwlegacy: 4965: fix possible out-of-bounds access in il4965_tx_cmd_build_rate()

Prevent out-of-bounds access in il4965_tx_cmd_build_rate() by rejecting
rate_idx values greater than or equal to RATE_COUNT_LEGACY.
Use a correct bounds check to avoid accessing il_rates[] with
an invalid index. The previous comparison allowed rate_idx to become
equal to RATE_COUNT_LEGACY, which exceeds the array limit.
Replace the check 'rate_idx > RATE_COUNT_LEGACY' with
'rate_idx >= RATE_COUNT_LEGACY' to ensure memory safety.
