Author: adrian

New revision: 287029
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/287029

Log:
  Reset the channel to the first available channel if the interface
  is configured on a channel that isn't valid in the new operating mode.

  This isn't strictly true - it should find the first channel that is
  available for the given operating mode.

  However, I think defaulting to the first channel is fine - it's typically
  available for all modes.

  If someone would like to correctly implement this feature - try to
  find a channel that is valid for the given operating mode and error
  out if we can't find one.

  This prevents various NICs (eg wpi(4)) from throwing a firmware error.

  Tested:

  * ath(4), STA/AP mode
  * iwn(4), STA/adhoc mode
