[PATCH 5/6] AP: Avoid 20/40 MHz co-ex scan if PRI/SEC switch is not allowed

From: Alexander Bondar <alexander.bondar at intel.com>

When an AP is started on the 5.2 band with 40MHz bandwidth, a
scan is issued in order to handle 20/40 MHz coexistence. However,
the scan is issued even if iface->conf->no_pri_sec_switch is set,
which is redundant.

Fix this by checking iface->conf->no_pri_sec_switch before starting
the scan.
