Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211: Allow beacons to update BSS table regardless of scan

From: Ilan Peer <[email protected]>

When a beacon is received use it to update the BSS table regardless
of the scanning state. Do so only when there are active non-monitor
interfaces. Also, while at it, in any case accept beacons only with
broadcast address.
