No actually it can't, cfg80211_chandef_usable() triggers a warning which
we can't do if userspace just sends invalid information; however it's
doing that for all other in-kernel users intentionally.

Thanks. Even below also can be removed as cfg80211_chandef_usable()
checks this at the beginning.

if (!cfg80211_chandef_valid(chandef))
return -EINVAL;

ok. So in case of nl80211_parse_chandef() we will be calling
cfg80211_chandef_valid() twice.
No problem.
