The passive scan channel dwell time currently used is 30-60TU. A typical
beacon interval for AP's is 100TU. This leads to a ~30% worst-case probability
of finding an AP via passive scanning.
For 5GHz bands for DFS frequencies passive scanning is the only scanning
option. Hence for these, the probability of finding an AP is very low.
To fix this, increase the passive channel scan dwell times (also the early
leave value, as 5GHz channels are still typically very silent.) Use a value
of 100TU, because that covers most typical AP configurations.
Based on testing the probability of finding an AP (100TU beacon interval) on
a single scan round are as follows (based on 100 iterations):
dwell min/max (TU) | probability
---------------------+------------
30/60 | 35%
60/60 | 56%
80/80 | 77%
100/100 | 100%
Total scan times now and after the change:
Region | Before (s) | After (s)
-------+------------+----------
00 | 0.77 | 1.48
FI | 0.95 | 2.01
US | 0.91 | 1.76

PLT mode start/stop is controlled from userspace. When removing module, the
PLT mode state is however not checked, and not cleared. There is the possibility
of some unwanted state to left linger and there is even the possiblity of a
kernel crash if for instance IRQ work is running when the module is removed.
Fix this by stopping PLT mode on module removal, if still running.

When 11a is not supported, we were modifying the global structure that
contains the bands supported by the driver. This causes problems when
having more one wl12xx device in the same system because they all use
the same global. This also causes problems when the wl12xx_sdio
module is removed and the wl12xx module remains.
Fix this problem by copying the band structure into the wl12xx
instance.
