[PATCH v2] wifi: mt76: mt792x: Limit the concurrent STA and SoftAP to operate on the same channel

From: Leon Yen <leon.yen at mediatek.com>

Due to the lack of NoA(Notice of Absence) mechanism in SoftAP mode, it is
inappropriate to allow concurrent SoftAP and STA to operate on the
different channels.

This patch restricts the concurrent SoftAP and STA to be setup on the same
channel only.
