mac80211: Checking IBSS support while changing channel in ad-hoc mode
This patch adds a check to the set_channel flow. When attempting to change the channel while in IBSS mode, and the new channel does not support IBSS mode, the flow return with an error value with no consequences on the mac80211 and driver state.
