Currently, the way to check the size of Spatial Reuse IE data in the
ieee80211_parse_extension_element() is incorrect.
This is because the len variable in the ieee80211_parse_extension_element()
function is equal to the size of Spatial Reuse IE data minus one and the
value of returned by the ieee80211_he_spr_size() function is equal to
the length of Spatial Reuse IE data. So the result of the
len >= ieee80211_he_spr_size(data) statement always false.
To address this issue and make it consistent with the logic used elsewhere
with ieee80211_he_oper_size(), change the
"len >= ieee80211_he_spr_size(data)" to
“len >= ieee80211_he_spr_size(data) - 1”.
