What would happen with the not yet started BSS in that case when it
might get enabled afterwards? Would it use the new channel from this
channel switch request? If not, this change might not be complete to
cover that case. It would seem most reasonable for all BSSs to be moved
to use the new channel and if there are disabled BSSs in this list, just
update their configuration immediately without going through CSA.
