From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan mohammed@qti.qualcomm.com
[ Upstream commit c73f8c00330f59ce9b1ace9ff698aca83390d358 ]
Doing a channel switch via hostapd_cli seems to update the new channel context for each VAP's appropriately as below in 'ath10k_mac_update_vif_chan', hence we can safely suppress the warning that shows up during this operation and dump the warning only if no vaps are available for channel switch
hostapd_cli -i wlan0 chan_switch 5 5200 OK
