Well, there's an existing place in this function that uses
cfg80211_find_ext_ie(), and various uses of ieee80211_bss_get_ie(), so
it feels like if we're going to do the full parsing, we should switch
all the existing "look up an element" to also use the parsed data
instead.

Not the other way around :)
