wifi: mac80211: fix potential sta-link leak

CVE-2024-35838

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

When a station is allocated, links are added but not set to valid yet (e.g. during connection to an AP MLD), we might remove the station without ever marking links valid, and leak them. Fix that.
