    wifi: cfg80211: consume both probe response and beacon IEs
    
    [ Upstream commit f510bcc21ed97911b811c5bf36ed43a0e94ab702 ]
    
    When doing a channel switch, cfg80211_update_known_bss may be called
    with a BSS where both proberesp_ies and beacon_ies is set. If that
    happens, both need to be consumed.
