mac80211: do not actively scan DFS channels
DFS channels should not be actively scanned as we can't be sure if we are allowed or not. If the current channel is in the DFS band, active scan might be performed after CSA, but we have no guarantee about other channels, therefore it is safer to prevent active scanning at all.
