Tova Mussai ffa4629e0c nl80211: return error for invalid center_freq in 40 MHz
When NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE is given, nl80211 would parse the
channel definition the old way, discarding NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ1,
NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ2 etc. However, it is possible that user space
added both NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE and NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ1
or NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ2 assuming that all settings would be honored.

In such a case, validate that NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ1 and
NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ2 values match the channel configuration,
as otherwise user space would assume that the desired configuration was
applied.

For example, when trying to start ap with
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE = NL80211_CHAN_HT40MINUS,
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ = 5180 and NL80211_ATTR_CENTER_FREQ1 = 5250
without this fix, the ap will start on channel 36 (center_freq1 will be
corrected to 5180).  With this fix, we will throw an error instead.
