Subject: [PATCH net] mwifiex: Fix NL80211_TX_POWER_LIMITED

NL80211_TX_POWER_LIMITED was treated as NL80211_TX_POWER_AUTOMATIC,
which is the opposite of what should happen and can cause nasty
regulatory problems.

if/else converted to a switch without default to make gcc warn
on unhandled enum values.

I tried to follow the conventions used inside this driver for
variable types, dbm_min is u16 like dbm.
