mac80211: set HT channel before association
Changing the channel type during operation is confusing to some drivers and will be hard to handle in multi-channel scenarios. Instead of changing the channel, set it to the right HT channel before authenticating/associating and don't change it -- just update the 20/40 MHz restrictions in rate control as needed when changed by the AP. This also fixes a problem that Paul missed in his fix for the "regulatory makes us deaf" issue -- when we couldn't use 40 MHz we still associated saying we were using 40 MHz, which could in similarly broken APs make us never even connect successfully.
