Do not ignore 0 txpower setting unless the vif is of type p2p.

My patch has problems I think:  secondary stations also have un-init
txpower when they are first built and start scanning.

So, I'm going to try setting txpower to -1 in mac80211 and use that
to mean 'unset'.

Thanks,
Ben


This should fix regression in:

     ath10k: fix incorrect txpower set by P2P_DEVICE interface

Tested (without p2p in use) on 9984 with ath10k-ct firmware, but I don't think
this is firmware specific.
