wl1271: Fix to join and channel number handling
This patch changes the way JOIN's are performed, and channel numbers updated. The reason for this is that the firmware JOIN command clears WPA(2) key material, and if done while associated to a WPA(2) secured AP, will render the data-path unusable. While the channel is not usually changed while associated (and currently we could not even support something like that), after performing a scan operation while associated, mac80211 will re-set the current channel to the driver. This caused our problem. Also, the mac80211 is assuming that the driver channel configuration remains persistent over periods of IDLE. Therefore remove channel resetting to zero from the unjoin function.
