iwlwifi: allow probe-after-rx on 2.4 GHz
There are two passive 2.4 GHz channels: 12 and 13. If you have a hidden SSID on those, you will not be able to connect to it because we don't send out probe requests there. We can allow this by using the firmware's probe-after-rx functionality on those channels as well. This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16462 Reported-by: Daniel J Blueman <daniel.blueman@gmail.com> Tested-by: Daniel J Blueman <daniel.blueman@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com>
