Subject: brcmfmac: fix conversion of channel width 20MHZ_NOHT
From: Arend van Spriel <arend@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 0cd75b19899fd86b51a6480fb8c00dcd85a54591 upstream.
The function chandef_to_chanspec() failed when converting a
chandef with bandwidth set to NL80211_CHAN_WIDTH_20_NOHT. This
was reported by user running the device in AP mode.
