cfg80211: make action channel type optional
When sending action frames, we want to verify that we do that on the correct channel. However, checking the channel type in addition can get in the way, since the channel type could change on the fly during an association, and it's not useful to have the channel type anyway since it has no effect on the transmission. Therefore, make it optional to specify so that if wanted, it can still be checked, but is not required. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.
