mac80211: split hardware scan by band
There's currently a very odd bug in mac80211 -- a
hardware scan that is done while the hardware is
really operating on 2.4 GHz will include CCK rates
in the probe request frame, even on 5 GHz (if the
driver uses the mac80211 IEs). Vice versa, if the
hardware is operating on 5 GHz the 2.4 GHz probe
requests will not include CCK rates even though
they should.
Fix this by splitting up cfg80211 scan requests by
band -- recalculating the IEs every time -- and
requesting only per-band scans from the driver.
Apparently this bug hasn't been a problem yet, but
it is imaginable that some older access points get
confused if confronted with such behaviour.
