nl80211: move "can set channel" check
Setting the wdev to NULL when the channel can't be set for that interface type (to treat the channel setting for the wiphy/monitor) currently works, but is confusing in the code if netdev/wdev aren't both set/unset in the same way. Move the check whether the channel can be set to where it's needed so that wdev and netdev are always both assigned or NULL. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
