	   mac80211: make off-channel work generic

triggered a bug in iwlwifi where HT parameters would not be correctly set in
some mac80211 pathways. The aggregation (and possibly other) station flags were
not being set, which limited the size of aggregation blocks and reduced
throughput at high rates.

>From Johannes:
"""
Due to Wey-Yi's patch to use the set-channel command when the channel changes
while associated, we don't get a full new RXON. Therefore, we don't re-set the
rxon-station either. However, under some circumstances that apparently have
gotten more likely mac80211 will first set up the BSS info, then add the
station and then switch to an HT channel type.

Therefore, the check for "priv->current_ht_config.is_ht" in
iwl_rxon_add_station() will hit false and not fill in the HT information.

However, that check can just be removed, which is the easiest fix for all this,
because the HT capa struct is always there, just could possibly have the
ht_supported member set to false.
"""

A sample good link in my 3x3 network improves by approximately 25% TCP
throughput. This fixes Bug 2144
(http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2144).
