In this patch we search all A-BAND available channels to get the right
frequency value. this might not be the right thing to do in beacon
parsing. Another approach is to have a static array of the maximum
A-BAND channel number then we can map from channel to frequency fast. we
can set the values of this array at run time.
This patch modify d80211 to fix getting wrong frequency value
for scan implemented in hardware. With harware scan we might get
beacon of a network that is on different channel that in
local->conf.channel causing set freq to wrong value.
