    wifi: mac80211: don't return unset power in ieee80211_get_tx_power()
    
    [ Upstream commit e160ab85166e77347d0cbe5149045cb25e83937f ]
    
    We can get a UBSAN warning if ieee80211_get_tx_power() returns the
    INT_MIN value mac80211 internally uses for "unset power level".
    
     UBSAN: signed-integer-overflow in net/wireless/nl80211.c:3816:5

    In this case, simply return an error instead, to indicate
    that no data is available.
