Subject: mac80211: send AP probe as unicast again

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

commit a73f8e21f3f93159bc19e154e8f50891c22c11db upstream.

Louis reported that a static checker was complaining that
the 'dst' variable was set (multiple times) but not used.
This is due to a previous commit having removed the usage
(apparently erroneously), so add it back.

Fixes: a344d6778a98 ("mac80211: allow drivers to support NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_RANDOM_ADDR")
