Commit 79240f3f6d76 ("wifi: nl80211: re-check wiphy netns in
nl80211_prepare_wdev_dump() continuation") fixed one dumpit path that
looked the wiphy up by index on a later call without confirming it was
still in the caller's netns. Two more dumpit paths have the same gap.

nl80211_testmode_dump() and nl80211_prepare_vendor_dump() both keep the
wiphy index in cb->args[] and look it up again on later calls, through
cfg80211_rdev_by_wiphy_idx() and wiphy_idx_to_wiphy(). The first call
binds to the caller's netns. A later call does not check it again. In
between, the wiphy can move to another netns via
NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY_NETNS.

Add the same net_eq() check to both. On a mismatch, return -ENODEV and
the dump ends.

No mainline driver registers .testmode_dump or
wiphy_vendor_command.dumpit, so these paths are not reachable today.
Drivers outside the tree can register either.
