What would set the interface down? And if it is down and the driver has
disabled the radio, how would we even get here (e.g., scan results may
not be available)? Since wpa_supplicant sets the interface UP in the
start, this patch looks like a workaround for something that should
probably be fixed at the location of the real problems (i.e., make it
not set the interface down).
