    mac80211: use secondary channel offset IE also beacons during CSA · 84469a45

    If we are switching from an HT40+ to an HT40- channel (or vice-versa),
    we need the secondary channel offset IE to specify what is the
    post-CSA offset to be used.  This applies both to beacons and to probe
    responses.
    
    In ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie() we were ignoring this IE from
    beacons and using the *current* HT information IE instead.  This was
    causing us to use the same offset as before the switch.
    
    Fix that by using the secondary channel offset IE also for beacons and
    don't ever use the pre-switch offset.  Additionally, remove the
    "beacon" argument from ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie(), since it's not
    needed anymore.
