With commit bc8a0fac8677 ("wifi: mac80211: don't set bss_conf in parsing")
ath11k fails to connect to 6 GHz AP.

This is because currently ath11k checks AP's power type in
ath11k_mac_op_assign_vif_chanctx() which would be called in AUTH stage.
However with above commit power type is not available until ASSOC stage.
As a result power type check fails and therefore connection fails.

Fix this by moving power type check to ASSOC stage, also move regulatory
rules update there because it depends on power type.

Tested-on: WCN6855 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HSP.1.1-03125-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_LITE-3.6510.30

Fixes: bc8a0fac8677 ("wifi: mac80211: don't set bss_conf in parsing")

v2:
 - add check on 'arvif->chanctx.def.chan' in ath11k_mac_op_sta_state()
   to avoid NULL pointer dereference.
 - add 'Fixes:' tag.

Thanks, this seems to fix the crash I saw.
