NetLabel: perform input validation earlier on CIPSOv4 DOI add ops

There are a couple of cases where the user input for a CIPSOv4 DOI add
operation was not being done soon enough; the result was unexpected behavior
which was resulting in oops/panics/lockups on some platforms.  This patch moves
the existing input validation code earlier in the code path to protect against
bogus user input.
