staging: r8188eu: pass only ies to process_p2p_ps_ie
The process_p2p_ps_ie function parses the information elements of a beacon
message and extracts p2p-related info.
process_p2p_ps_ie does not receive a pointer to the information elements
as one would expect. Instead it receives a pointer to the timestamp field
in the beacon message. process_p2p_ps_ie increments this pointer by
_BEACON_IE_OFFSET_ to jump to the start of the information elements (and
decreases the buffer length accordingly).
This is clumsy and hard to understand. Rewrite this such that
process_p2p_ps_ie takes a pointer to the information elements and the
total length of all elements. Check up-front that the total length is
not negative.
