Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan ca07baab0b ath10k: disallow DFS simulation if DFS channel is not enabled
If DFS is not enabled in hostapd (ieee80211h=0) DFS channels shall
not be available for use even though the hardware may have the capability
to support DFS. With this configuration (DFS disabled in hostapd) trying to
bring up ath10k device in DFS channel for AP mode fails and trying to
simulate DFS in ath10k debugfs results in a warning in cfg80211 complaining
invalid channel and this should be avoided in the driver itself rather than
false propogating RADAR detection to mac80211/cfg80211. Fix this by
checking for the first vif 'is_started' state(should work for client mode
as well) as all the vifs shall be configured for the same channel

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
