There really isn't any support for scanning at different
channel widths than 20 MHz since there's no way to set it.
Remove this support for now, if somebody wants to maintain
this whole thing later we can revisit how it should work.

Just want to remind that there were two proposals given to allow setting this from upstream:
<https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230301090242.1613672-1-quic_xinyling@xxxxxxxxxxx/>

In the thread you asked for additional information:
<https://lore.kernel.org/all/6796c3c209a071983d330ca145d7ab8b929d53c6.camel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/>

So to see if there is any update on that request Cc: Xinyue Ling <quic_xinyling@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Would hate to see this ripped out just to need to replace it later.
