mac80211: Ensure power-level set properly for scanning.
My previous patch to optimize scanning on operating channel accidentally removed the code that would ensure power was set to maximum for scanning. This patch re-adds that functionality. Signed-off-by: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
