Subject: staging: wlan-ng: Fix clamping of returned SSID length
From: Tormod Volden <[email protected]>
commit 811a37effdb11e54e1ff1ddaa944286c88f58487 upstream.
Commit 2e254212 broke listing of available network names, since it
clamped the length of the returned SSID to WLAN_BSSID_LEN (6) instead of
WLAN_SSID_MAXLEN (32).
