iwlwifi: work around passive scan issue

Some firmware versions don't behave properly when
passive scanning is requested on radar channels
without enabling active scanning on receiving a
good frame. Work around that issue by asking the
firmware to only enable the active scanning after
receiving a huge number of good frames, a number
that can never be reached during our dwell time.
