When user-space does not provide scheduled scan plans, ie. uses the
old scheduled scan API containing NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_INTERVAL.
The interval value passed by user-space is validated against
struct wiphy::max_sched_scan_plan_interval and if it is exceeding
it the interval is set to struct wiphy::max_sched_scan_plan_interval.
However, when the driver does not set this limit the interval the
interval in the request will always be zero. Hence add a check to
see whether the driver set struct wiphy::max_sched_scan_plan_interval.

For the new API, ie. for scheduled scan plans, the interval validation
has been simalarly adjusted to assure the limit is non-zero.

Actually turns out that max_sched_scan_plan_interval is always set in
wiphy_new_nm() which is used by all drivers so please drop this patch.

Right, I mixed mac80211 into the picture and got confused.
