This (partially) reverts commits -838c7b8f1f("wifi: nl80211: Avoid address calculations via out of bounds array indexing") -f1d3334d60("wifi: cfg80211: sme: init n_channels before channels[] access") -82bbe02b25("wifi: mac80211: Set n_channels after allocating struct cfg80211_scan_request") These commits all set the structure to be in an inconsistent state, setting n_channels to some value before them actually being filled in. That's fine for what the code does now, but with the removal of __counted_by() in444020f4bf("wifi: cfg80211: remove scan request n_channels counted_by") it's no longer needed and it does leave a bit of a landmine there since breaking out of some code to send the scan or something would leave it wrong. Remove the now superfluous n_channels settings.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
