mwifiex: update bss band information
In recent commit "mwifiex: use cfg80211 dynamic scan..." (7c6fa2a843..) scan table handling in driver is removed to make use of cfg80211 dynamic scan table. Now driver sends beacon buffers found in scanning directly to stack and parse the buffer for requested BSS only during association. Beacon buffer doesn't contain bss band information. Driver gets it from firmware in separate tlv (chan_band_tlv). Currently since we don't inform stack about bss bandinfo, there is an issue with 5GHz association. Use "priv" field of struct cfg80211_bss to store bandinfo. This fixes 5GHz association issue.
