wifi: nl80211/cfg80211: add forgotten nla_policy for BSS color attribute
[ Upstream commit 218d690c49b7e9c94ad0d317adbdd4af846ea0dc ]
The previous commit dd3e4fc75b4a ("nl80211/cfg80211: add BSS color to
NDP ranging parameters") adds a parameter for NDP ranging by introducing
a new attribute type named NL80211_PMSR_FTM_REQ_ATTR_BSS_COLOR.
However, the author forgot to also describe the nla_policy at
nl80211_pmsr_ftm_req_attr_policy (net/wireless/nl80211.c). Just
complement it to avoid malformed attribute that causes out-of-attribute
access.
