iwlwifi: validate enhanced tx power entry

Browse source 
Validate enhanced tx power entry read from EEPROM before applying the
tx power value. Different versions of EEPROM might contain different size
of table; always a good idea to make sure the entry is valid before
applying to the targeted channel.
