[RFC,0/2] wifi: detect stuck ECSA

This is a pretty specific workaround for what's going on with the Asus
AP codolt has (btw, could you actually mention the specific model and
maybe firmware version, just so we have a record of it?). But I've also
asked around internally and while we had encountered this with Windows
(too bad we didn't check before, sorry!), no other case is known.

Could you try these patches? I didn't (yet) attempt to reproduce this
scenario.

Sending as RFC to see if this addresses the issue - I will probably
refine the logic a bit, e.g. if there's no quiet and the channel is
the same, we might still want to connect? Not sure entirely.

The AP is an Asus RT-AC53, firmware 3.0.0.4.380_10760-g21a5898

I tried those patches on 6.7.0, with them it works and connects fine to the AP.
