The size of prev_swp_freq[] is a fixed constant unrelated to
the number of possible detection attempts. Index 'prev_freq_num'
of array 'prev_swp_freq' is incremented by each step in cycle.
If index exceeds the total length of array, an out-of-bounds
access might happen, in case of repeated unsuccessful signal
acquisition. Add check to prevent this.

v2: Add check for array's length on each cycle step,
edit patch description, edit tag 'fixes'.

v3: Edit condition to >= ARRAY_SIZE(). Move condition at cycle
beginning to prevent border check error.
