    Patch fix firmware error on "iw dev wlan0 scan passive" for
    hardware scanning (with disable_hw_scan=0 module parameter).

    We have disable ability to change passive scanning to active on
    particular channel when traffic is detected on that channel. Otherwise
    firmware will report error, when we try to do passive scan on radar
    channels.
