It was observed that station would sent probe request even when scan type has been set as passive during iw scan. This was happening because driver sets passive scan type only when channel has IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_IR flag set. Along with this, add condition to check if no ssids are specified in scan request so as to mark such scan request passive.
